Family Coming In and I Go to the Dentist

Betty's sister, Margie Wade, who lives in Franklin, Tenn. is flying in today for a short visit. Tomorrow morning (Thursday), we're heading off to Silver City, New Mexico for a few days. We've never been to that part of the state and we also want to see the tree colors in the Gila Mountains which should be just about perfect while we're there.

I'll post some advance posts to let you know what we think we'll be doing each day and then post real results on Monday.

However, to start the day off I have a dentist appointment for a 6-month check and cleaning. It's a human version of getting my teeth floated.

Doesn't this picture make your whole day?

Today is October 22 and if today is your Birthday then you share your day with: Brian Boitano (Olympic ice skater), Jeff Goldblum (actor), Annette Funicello (Mouskateer), Christopher Lloyd (actor, "Back to the Future"), Timothy Leary (noted druggie), Curly Howard ("Three Stooges"), N. C.Wyeth (great artist), and Sarah Bernhardt (actress).
