The morning of the 18, Sylvia called said she would like that to happen, Also a few days ago Ben Busch called to tell us he wouod be in Maine to watch a trial (too long a story for here) and he would like to stop by when the trial was over and bring us some lobsters. He said he would arrive at night on the 18th or 19th, let himself in and we'd see him in the morning. So, I stripped the bed before turning in on Monday the 17th and washed thge sheets and put them up to dry before going to bed. In the morning, Lieb and I made the bed in the guest room and the spent the rest of the morning working on "Peregrination" and making decisions so that he would have plenty to work on while we were at the hospital. We spent the afternoon with Sylvia until Bob's surgery was over, and were able to see Bob before we went home. We got home in time to see Lieb and for me to feed the cat at her regular time. Ben called in the early evening to tell us the trial wasn't over and that he would get here some time the next day in the early afternoon.`; document.write(linkifyHtml(str, options)); ]]>
