X-Rays

Ken's follow-up x-rays to check the healing from his surgery were made this morning. When Dr. Six looked at them, he said that everything was just as it should be. He encouraged Ken to be smart about physical activity, but other than bending, lifting, and twisting, didn't put any limits on him. In fact, he said that continued walking and other exercise would contribute to successful bone fusion and soft tissue healing.

So we drove to Pharr South and walked around the park while waiting for the afternoon challenge lesson to start. It was sunny and 80 degrees, so we actually were hot and enjoyed the air conditioning in the dance hall. We mainly reviewed calls today, including Tally Ho and Regroup and 3-2 Acey Deucey. We were introduced to O and Butterfly formations and calls. As usual, we have so many new moves jostling in our brains that it's hard to keep track of all of them.

After dinner we walked around a bit and dropped in on Gary and Mary Ann, who said that they had tried to find us home twice today. We were sorry to learn that they will be leaving the Valley next Monday. They're planning to spend time in Corpus Christi and in Fredericksburg before going home, and they're hoping to be selected for the Excel New York and Boston trip this summer.
