August 1
Friday August 1, 2003
August 1!?! Where did the time go? We seem to have lost track of time as we've been immersed into our little transplant world. Outside of Bob Hope's death and Lance Armstrong winning again, we're pretty clueless on current events. That's what you get with no newspapers or TV for a few weeks.
With everything pushed back until the beginning of next week we're going to try our best to enjoy our last couple of days as a family that can still get out. We've been told to avoid crowds and do massive amounts of hand washing (as always) and Max has been put on one more oral steroid for his lungs to boost them up the best they can before chemo starts.
So today we made it out to the Minneapolis Sculpture Gardens at the Walker Art Center. We didn't go inside to the museum, but we enjoyed the garden. If you've ever seen a guidebook to the twin cities, you've probably seen a picture of the giant spoon and cherry fountain. The Frank Gehry glass fish was pretty impressive as well. "Don't touch that Grace, it's glass . . ." You can look around the garden :

We don't know what else we're going to do this weekend, but we're happy for a couple more days of freedom.
Check out the photos page for a couple of pictures of our stay at the Ronald McDonald House, and thanks as always for all your encouragement in our guestbook.
All the best,
Mike
