Diary Entry for 6/17/2004

a few showers but a great day. Vi and I walked over to Dr. Willis’ and blood lab. My toe didn’t hurt walking so far. Nurse Alice here to dress it in morning. I had an EKG at Dr. Willis’s. The jet planes have been taken off all day from Fort Drum with our 10th mountain soldiers headed for Iraq. So sad to think of them leaving their young families. Some of them will not come home alive. I said a prayer for each plane load. Florence, Vi, and Angie here. I called Vern’s in evening. He’s feeling better.
