January 16, 2009
Pop continues to improve and is taking his physical and occupational therapy daily. He looks well and seems about ready to go home, but we haven't talked with any of the decision makers about that yet. Dink spends most of the day with him and eats lunch with him in the dining room; an improvement from taking all of his meals in his room.
Had to go to VA this week for a quick trip; Jackson was out of school (since he was exempt from his exams) so he and Terri came with me to get out of town for a night.
After lunch Wednesday we visited William and Mary. The students were not in session so we could move around the campus pretty easily. We met with an assistant football coach and an ROTC adviser. We were impressed with the campus and academic offering; it would be quite a challenge for Jackson, but he's a pretty smart kid and has a good work ethic.
While cutting through one of Norfolk's finer neighborhoods; OK, maybe 60 years ago it was; saw an area which looked a little familiar. Here's a picture of my great Aunt (pronounced ahhhhhhhhhhhhhnt, not ain't) Bertie's house on Lafayette; been a long time since I've been in that area.
In town all of next week; hope Chicago gets all of that bad weather out of its system before the AHR Expo the next week. Send orders!
