San Francisco, CA - Bunny Ears and Selfies

Hey, remember when Easter came and you wanted the bunny with the big chocolate ears? Well, look what we found in a local store. Tiny bunnies, BIG EARS. Sometimes manufacturers actually listen and fulfill their customers’ ‘needs’ and I know that this was a 'YUGE' need.

Meanwhile I’ll you the indignities of being injured. I’ve mentioned that I couldn’t dry my own feet in the shower on the first few days of my injury and here is Gary tying my shoes for me a few days ago. He even had to help me slip my left foot into the shoe. But, today, I’m to the point now where I can dress myself - I can put my own clothes on, my own shoes and I can even tie the laces. And, I can dry my own feet after a shower. I can’t bring my left foot up to my hands to dry it but I can take the towel down to the floor. Luckily, I’m somewhat limber.

Here’s one of my typical poses these days: icing down the knee. And, there’s my huge knee brace off to the left in the picture. Velcro is great because it catches on everything - but, that’s the problem, it catches on everything.

Taking a short spin around the campground. I just had to get out of the RV for a bit. I’m not used to being cooped up and almost immobile. I have just gotten some mail - my copy of the 2016 Milepost - so I can drool over the thought of our trip to Alaska.

We like this campground since it is so close to everything: San Francisco, the Marin Headlands, Muir Woods, the ferry system, Point Reyes, Charles Schulz Museum, etc. but then it is so close. And, here’s what I mean - we can see right into our neighbor’s windows. We don’t have neighbors every night but the sites are tight.

Gary has kept close tabs on our travels. Here is a map showing our where we have traveled in our Winnebago Journey. These points are everywhere we have bought gas. You can see that one year we went up the west coast and the next year we went up the east coast but - we always end up in Iowa. We always said that Iowa was the middle of nowhere BUT the center of everything.

What is it about selfies? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a good one. Gary and I are obviously looking at my iPad but I can’t recall what we’re looking at. Possibly, I’m practicing how to take selfies - and, judging by this picture, I need to practice lots more - or give it up. Gary says to ‘bury this picture.’
