Tuesday Evening Updates

DS's GF is still in the hospital, and will probably be in at least another week. She is still on medication to help dissolve the blood clots in her lungs, and needs to stay in the hospital longer than she had thought. She is feeling a little better than when she was admitted so I hope that she is on the road to recovery.

Yesterday was a sad day. The voice of the Phillies, Harry Kalas, passed away yesterday. I was sorry to hear about it - the games won't be the same without his commentary. Rest in peace, Harry. You and Richie Ashburn will again be calling play-by-play from heaven! We'll miss you.

Just an ordinary day at work today. Tomorrow is Wednesday - Hump Day! We'll be over the hump and on the downhill slide in just a few hours!

The Poconos! The surprise was blown (at least to my thinking) when I turned on the GPS to start out our trip. Up pops the address! Of course, it didn't tell DH where we were staying but it did tell him we were headed for East Stroudsburg PA! Dang! He was thinking we were headed for the Jersey shore. Then the GPS took us on a trip! I thought it would put us on the PA turnpike, taking the northeast extension. Wrong! It actually sent us up the NJ side of the Delaware River. So it was an adventure for both of us. We stayed at the Fernwood Hotel and Resort. I'd read excellent reviews and also some very bad reviews on the place. I was hesitant to book it, but it was the most reasonably priced lodging with availability on such short notice. There were restaurants on the grounds and lots to do in the resort and the surrounding area. We arrived at 10:00 pm on Friday to discover that the king accommodations we reserved in the hotel proper were not available, due to service ...
