A great blue heron on our dock this morning. Dale and I are just finishing a wonderful six day stay at our beloved Freshwater Cottage at the Oregon Coast.
This is a long overdue update. The good news is there is not much change in Dale's condition over the past couple of weeks. He continues to get around well with the walker and enjoy short outings, visits with friends and family, yummy meals, and lots of naps.
We have been joined here at the coast by friends and family for two day visits. We have so appreciated wonderful food that they have brought to share. Our thoughtful neighbor Micki had groceries waiting for us when we arrived and then brought fresh chocolate chip cookies the next day.
We head back to Portland today but hope to plan more visits here in the next few weeks. We are hoping to settle into a pretty regular routine. Later today or tonight I will be updating the support team calendar on the blog. Please check it tomorrow to see our needs. There will be regular needs for "Dale buddies" plus some opportunities to help unpack a few more boxes.
Dale is really enjoying visits from friends and family. He often has a story to tell and likes hearing what folks have been up to. Call our land line 503 284 3184 if you are in the neighborhood and have a few minutes to stop by.
Dale is also really happy to be getting back to attending church at Grace and even has been attending a wonderful gentle yoga class there offered by our friend Sherri.
Finally again we are more grateful than you can know for all of the care, prayer and good thoughts you all continue to send our way.
With much love and gratitude
