Recuperation Update and Key Largo News

The south side of the building used for the Wyland painting has a diver portrayed. The painting is dedicated to the Australian adventurer and naturalist, Steve Irwin, whose death from a stingray wound shocked us all. The diver represents Mr. Irwin in one of his elements.



Susan, Sam, Cailean, and Grant stayed on board for an extended weekend during President's week. Among the many things we did was a trip to Key West. In this picture, they are enjoying the scenery at Sombrero Beach near Marathon. It still is strange to see KSU sweatshirts on our GO BLUES. The day was beautifully sunny with strong winds. Unfortunately, Grandma had to remain in the vehicle to preserve her strength for the rest of the day.

Malory Square at Key West is a major attraction because of the many street performers and artists found there. Despite the high winds, the performers were able to balance on high ladders and unicycles without apparent difficulty. My favorite trick was the dog who was trained to take dollar bills from the tourists and deposit them in the master's bucket. Cailean and Grant had fun keeping the pigeons and seagulls away from grandma's head.
