Busy Weekend





After getting back in town after Midnight Friday, and getting a so so night's sleep. It was up to the crack of dawn getting things ready for the Hofmann Weekend Family get together. Sug's Sister, neice and great neice were coming in town for the weekend and staying at our place. It was nice to see them as it's been a year since we saw them last, when we went on our trip out to Estes Park, CO.

We unfortunately missed the Team Extreme Partay, on Saturday. Sounds like it was a good time with good company and awesome food.

We had dinner reservations at the Fox n Hounds Saturday, so didn't have to cook that night, but on Sunday, we had everyone over for a chili dinner during the football game. Chicken and Vegetarian Chili, some homemade Italian bread with Salad was served. Since Little Lilly turned "1", Mary made some delicious cupcakes for desert.

Went back to work today, but tomorrows Veterans Day, so...... I'm off work, yes! Maybe I can catch up on some needed sleep and then go out and get some leaves off the grass.

Mom C. came home today too. It's nice to see her again. After working in the yard, I'm hoping to spend some time with her.

Back from Richmond






What a nice city. It would have been excellent to visit and tour around looking at the historic buildings and such. However, with spending 2 full days at the University Hospital training the RN's, it left little free time. Here are a few pics of the area while I was walking to and from the hospital to my hotel. The Berkeley hotel (where I stayed) is supposedly "Haunted." The two Dr's that asked me to fly down took me to dinner on Thursday night to the chain restaurant "Cheesecake Factory". Oh well, it wasn't the place that was important, it was the company. I had a great time.

Air Travel

It's been a while since I traveled by air...

Remote parking, 8 bucks a day
Midwest, operated by Northwest. (probably means no cookies, not that I needed them anyway)
Luggage check, 15 bucks
Security check (about the easiest thing so far, with a threat level of orange)
Internet access, not free anymore, 8 bucks a day.

Leaving today, back on Friday

Destination is Richmond, to train a few nurses on Motility testing.

Brought along the workout clothes. Trying to start my fall/winter training. Hmm. it's not always easy, keeping at it.

Anytime fitness is having a 10 day free pass, I'm thinking about joining there, or Bally's. Both are very close to home.

Sure glad it was nice today, heard that it will be crappy when I get back.
