Back to the Pool

Elfriede enjoyed swimming again, first time since knee surgery.

Heart Beats

Elfriede had a doctor's appointment today (Dr. Samuel Butman, Cardiologist). She came out happy, no problems found.
With this positive diagnosis we ventured out to our Dead Horse State Park. Elfriede walked around the middle lagoon.

Movie night

Today we drove to Sedona, did a little Indian jewelery shopping in the Oak Creek Canyon, the went to see Julie & Julia .
The background scenery was nice, especially of Paris, brought back some memories. The movie was entertaining, at times maybe somewhat slow moving.

Movie Time

Went with Glen, Alexis & Luca to see a movie at the San Tan Village Harkins theater. G-Force in 3D! It 's about a bunch of well trained rodents. Had to wear glasses. The kids liked it, that's important. For us senior spectators the thing about rats, mole, and guinee pigs was a little overdone. The ending noisy with fire, explosions, etc

Fun with Alexis and Luca

We picked up Alexis at school, got Luca from his home and checked into the Legacy Best Western in Gilbert. After a swim in the nice pool, we had a snack at the Panda Express nearby. Glen also stopped by. He took Alexis back home, since she had school the next day. The pictures were taken during their recent vacation trip to New Mexico to visit Rachel's parents.

Recovering...

Back home in Cottonwood. Outside temperature around 100 degrees.

Flagstaff Med. Center

Elfriede was kept in the Cardio wing (3rd floor-east, room 3067) overnight for monitoring. Around noon an echocardiogram was done.
