I want to get this over with
My appointment with the oral surgeon is tomorrow morning, and I will be glad when it's over with even though I know I am in for some pain. I have enough of that now - way up into my head just above my eyebrows. Can't take this much longer!
I drove over to Best Buy this morning and returned the laptop charger - and got about $86 credited to my account. I also finally saw the charge from the motel for $2.78 postage to mail me the original charger. I'm happy that has all been taken care of.
On the way to and from Best Buy the road was blocked with fire equipment and traffic re-routed. I did super with finding my way around unfamiliar roads and back to US 9N again. It can be confusing because there is a 9N, a 9G, 9S, and a plain 9, and probably several others I haven't driven on. I just love this area as I've said several times before. It is rural even though there are a lot of houses and people, from older properties to new developments. Unfortunately, the developments are former farm lands, which I hate to see being used up for giant houses in large housing communities. So far the rural feel remains though, with tall green woods in just about every direction.
I won't be writing much in the coming days because I won't be doing anything except recuperating.

Grand Forks, Sd
I left Duluth this morning at about 8:15 and only drove 260+ miles today. I took my time, made several rest stops, and stayed within the speed limit even though it was difficult because of the reduced speeds for towns and road work. Being Sunday there...

An Evening At The Fair
I am too tired to write much tonight as we spent the late afternoon and evening at a local fair put on by the Sons of Italy. It was a family affair that had something for all ages. I really enjoyed the entertainment by a local singing group who seem to...

Clearfield, Pa
Tonight I am in a very nice place to make up for the dinginess of last night's lodging. The weather has been beautiful, making me wonder if I should stop at a campground, but to tell the truth I don't feel well and want to get to NY tomorrow so...

Altered Plans
So I'm back to the drawing board. I'll just drive my truck back east and see if I can sell it there. Meanwhile, the cure for the blues is to start making plans in another area, and I'm back to searching for housing in NY. I just can't...
