From the Fire...

Today was cold! For the gal who grew up in New Mexico and then lived in Wyoming the upper 40s and some wind was almost too much! Maybe.

I am posting this from Scott's room here at the clinic/hospital. We got him checked in and fed dinner, now he and his daddy are in the playroom playing Baseball on the Nintendo they have for patients. I can hear Scott's giggling from here!

We spent the better part of the day today sightseeing around D.C. We rode the Metro (the local subway) to the Mall (the area between the Capitol and Washington Monument). On either side of the mall between the two are the various Smithsonian museums. Scott wanted to see the White House, so we went to the visitors center to find out about tours and discovered that they have to be made with your Congressman's office, by reservation. So file that away if you are planning on visiting this area. We were able to see the back side of the White House, the World War II memorial, the Washington Monument and a quick "breeze through" the Natural History Museum.

Scott will start the various tests tomorrow morning and have some busy days coming up. He is a little nervous about these, please pray that he won't be nervous and that all the tests will be easy and pain free.

Pray for Chuck and I that we will get enough rest, so we can be available and "present" with Scott and the various doctors we will be working with.

I will post the pictures from today later, I don't have a way to upload them in Scott's room.

Thanks for you prayers!!
