Before we are allowed an LOA (Leave of Absence), we have to do physical therapy. Here Runzen has created an obstacle course for Meghan to accomplish without her cane! She is only cane-free with a therapist for now!
It was pouring rain, so we went to the Museum of Science. We loved the lightening show..........................
................produced by the Van De Graaf generator inside the museum.
To get to the lower floor, we had to use the work-ramp. Halfway down the slope Dad gives Meghan a push and let's her roll, unattended, to the bottom. Who are bigger teasers; brothers or Dads?
Meghan wanted to do the Live Animal Exhibit She was fascinated by the American Kestrel--perhaps the smallest and most colorful raptor
Upon recommendation, we went to UFood Grille where everything is baked not fried. French Fries for only 2oo calories was a treat. Why is it that we find these places, 6 days before we leave?
Sunday morning. This is our regular nurse Anne. Anne and Meghan have an interesting relationship: Anne is always trying to get Meghan to "Talk back" or "Cause trouble". She says that she has never met anyone as mild mannered and thoughtful as Meghan. So Anne says "Cause trouble today Meghan." and Meghan replies, "Only for you Anne!."
After church, we drove out to Salem MA to visit the Salem Witch Museum which depicts the Salem Witch Trials of 1692.
We were treated to a wonderful Mother's Day dinner of Swordfish, Haddock and Crab at FINZ-a local seafood restaurant-courtesy of Oma and Opa Kleinlein. It was a superb treat. Thank you.
Have you ever pet a lobster? The maitre "D told Meghan that this one Lobster in the tank was restless, so he pulled out the Lobster and taught Meghan how to rub it's head to calm it down. It worked.................only now Meghan refused to eat fish and insisted on ravioli (fish shaped at least!)

I would be too scared the claws would break free to pet the lobster. The googly eyes always creep me out. The only way I like crustaceans is in a crab cake.

Is leaving comments really this easy? I thought I had to get a yahoo account in order to post something and that had tripped me up before. Well, I hope this works!
ReplyDeleteMeghan,
We have been reading the blog and praying for you every day. Emily and Daniel have written you letters, but I guess I will send them to your house instead of the rehab center since you'll be there soon. We are so happy that you're coming home! Hopefully, you'll be up to having visitors because we'd love to see you! Our lives have been very boring compared to yours, but we'd love to catch up soon. This blog has been amazing!!
Love,
Emily, Daniel and Mrs. Arnold
