Update:  I'm working in the West Bottoms (I think that sounds so cool!)  And actually, the neighborhood has some beautiful architecture. It needs to be kept-up a bit, but I like it.  It's a good deal Hispanic, so I see a lot of Spanish signs, etc.  I really need to learn that language already!
Monica and I have started car-pooling when possible, which is lots of fun.  Yesterday we stopped at Fritz's, a local burger joint from Monica's days of gymnastic competitions.  Good greasy food and a cool train that carries your food to you!  I thought it was going to fall on my head, but I was wrong.  And you call in the order from your seat.  Craziness.  ; )
The job is going well.  Nice people, gorgeous building, and I have Tuesday afternoons to tutor.  Good stuff.
I'm reading Monica's book, Mountains Beyond Mountains, about a man named Paul Farmer. If you are into inspirational books, I would highly recommend this one.  The author writes about Dr. Farmer and his amazing life and outlook, and describes him as "an extreme definition of a term like 'doing one's best'."  It will make you think.
My eyes are getting better slowly, but the right one is still like looking through a contact with the wrong prescription.  However, I still find it absolutely amazing how well I can see compared to where I could see. I keep thinking, are these really MY eyes? hee hee!  Thanks, Dad!
Hope everyone is well!

You are most welcome! You know my motto "I can never say no". Especially to you, Sprout. I hope to get the blankets into the mail soon. I wrote you an email to explain why I haven't sent them yet.
Love ya,
Dad
