28—Memorial Day Parade each other’s news at a TexMex restaurant. The time of the meal was just enough so that we caught only the tail end of rush hour.

Farmers’ Market for a bite to eat and some quick shopping Polish foods, Mediterranean salads, cake and artisan bread. The Market meal meant we had time to select some good eats at the arena.

A kind box office staffer found seats for us with nearly no stairs to navigate.

They were away from any crowd all the much better.

The games themselves were blowouts. Most of the fun came when the pep bands played and the fans cheered. While it was good to be there, there wasn’t enough good hockey.

The level of hockey played at the AHL level versus college is faster. Ruth and I went to this past weekend’s local games and saw some great hockey, though sadly two losses for the locals. There’s a home game this Wednesday, then another on April Fools Day.

Sightings this week include heron, red tailed hawks, migrating geese, local foxes and the usual of deer standing in the road, and by it.

On Monday, I had a trip into Philadelphia to see surgeon and oncologist. As usual, it was a long day, but we have a plan for attacking the cancer. After the doctors, we collected a friend who lives nearby and went out for dinner. We caught up on

While in Philly, we sighted a variety of flowering trees, cherries, magnolias, and others we could not identify, plus forsythia bushes, daffodils, and other early spring flowers. It’s early for these but nice to see, though here’s hoping the weather holds out.

Back here, my forsythia is ready to bloom, but there are frosty nights ahead. I am getting more crocuses, purples and pale blues. I sighted some delicate little blue flowers in White Haven. Looking ahead, there’s more hockey and lots of sports on TV to enjoy. There are also plans to be made ahead of the Easter and Passover weekends. I see tax day coming up I’m not ready.

Springtime sunny good wishes and good health to everyone.
