My long-time Michigan friend, Linda Conklin, flew in to stay with me starting on Tuesday, the 30th. She’ll be heading home early early Tuesday, the 7th. We’re enjoying a fun visit. We’ve had several nice meals (including lunch at Plaza Mexico), South Clubhouse with the Brooks and the Coopers, and brunch with Caroline Cooper. Tomorrow is the Kentucky Derby horse race (on the North Clubhouse big screen). It’ll be a lively party complete with a hat contest and excellent buffet.

Later

Linda left on Tuesday, the 7th

Unfortunately she had a few bad days with severe pain in her right leg. The day before she was to leave, we went to Plaza Mexico (for the second time) and when we got ready to leave, Linda’s leg was spasming and extremely painful! She had me drive her to South Bay Hospital’s Emergency sevice. They prescribed major pain killers. We finally got back home. She left early early early on the 7th (at 4am) I woke up early and helped her finish packing.

Squad was that day and I was pooped!! Don’t recall ever being that worn out but I’ve recovered.
