There just has not been much to report to you.
I am still working hard on the book about my mother, but running out of material that I brought or was able to research on the internet. There is more material waiting for me and research to do in Holland. It is an amazing story, beyond my expectations.
I had hoped to leave from here earlier than the original 14 March departure, but there are still other matters I need to look after before I can leave here. Since medicare does not cover me away from the USA I decided to get a thorough check up. I had not had one for the last 12 years. This Wednesday I’ll have a colonoscopy done and there might be follow ups. All the other lab tests are, as I expected, all good. My right eye flared up once again. This week I received the green light on a boating article I wrote, but it needs another day or so of rewriting.
There is some more snow on the ground as you will see in the below picture, of the back yard. But Spring cannot be far away. I have the house all to myself here till Tuesday. Sean is at sea till the end of the week. Jeannine and Gabrielle left yesterday for a visit upstate New York, to their old friends.
So, a little early, Happy Valentine to All the Girls I have loved before and all the ones I still love.
