23 November 2018, A day from Mark’s past

Status: We’re home and trying to recover from our extended trip to Florida.  Our living room floor is full of tubs and baskets from the trip.

Schedule: 09:30 travel to park for our family walk after Thanksgiving, then to the Train museum and finally lunch.

Narrative: We made coffee and then took a nap to prepare for the outing today.  The walk around the park was very chilly to say the least.  The train museum was pretty cool, I thought the steam engines were the coolest thing on the lot.  (I hadn’t thought of a steam powered air compressor until I saw one on an engine.)  I hadn’t thought of powering the air conditioning for the sleeper cars from the wheels either.   Someone also spent a good deal of effort making a mechanism to keep the sleeper cars as upright as possible even on unlevel track.  (Lunch was pretty good and then we were ready for our afternoon nap.  We spent some time playing scrabble and planning the school project that is due on Monday.

Injuries: I’ve managed to hurt my left foot just inside my arch where the bones pinch me on the inside. I also have cracked my right heal and it managed to get infected on the way back from Florida. I used a hacksaw blade and sawed open the crack in the callas so I can apply ointments.

Noteworthy: My E-Mail was blowing up with messages from the Florida cameras today because the Realtor was walking mom’s farm taking pictures.

Tomorrow: It’s going to rain so inside cleanup day and meet up with J&J.
