Yet more life in the SLOW lane!

 Yep, things are moving along but pretty much at a snail's pace.  My wife is still in her wheelchair; hopefully she'll get out of it in a couple weeks but who knows.  In the mean time she is trying out the walker for 20-30 feet at a time.  Honestly, for her that's pretty good.  I'm just happy that I can help her!  I mean otherwise we'd be in some kind of care home.

In other exciting news we have had the usual 6-8 doctor visits each month (not counting the physical therapist who is checking on my wife).  It's a good excuse for driving into Vegas so I can visit the Total Wine store.  Otherwise we just wander around our 'little' town.  I checked it on Google Maps and it worked out to be something like 11 miles east to west and 19 miles north to south!  As you might suspect, one of the most common places for us to go these days in the Intermountain Healthcare building.  They have a pretty large parking area on two sides of the building.  As I was leaving the other day I had to take a couple of photos.  


 

Yep, two wild horses!  There are a fair number around here but I've never seen them by the doctor's office.  Usually they prefer a little park over by the county office where there is lots of nice green grass and shade trees.  They even get into our local paper:  https://pvtimes.com/news/no-touching-or-feeding-the-horses-152526/.  There was at least one more horse in the area but it was hiding behind a cafe and I couldn't get a photo of it.  We have wild burros around as well but they are more likely to be hiding out in the desert areas.  BTW, those mountains in the background are in California.  

Anyway, that's all the news from around here.  Exciting stuff, huh.  Have a good one and try to keep out of trouble!
