Sadly, former Denver Bronco Craig Morton passed May 9th. He was a Bronco from 1977 to 1982. He served as the starting quarterback for most of those six seasons, leading the team to its first-ever Super Bowl appearance (Super Bowl XII) in 1977. I moved to CO in 1976, so that's when I started following the team. (He also played for the Giants and Cowboys).
Cameron is off of work today and tomorrow, and is supposed to help me with some stuff - but he's exhausted, so I'll let him rest today.
Yesterday was filled with high winds, hail, & downpours. Today is sunny and cooler.
After hours (I timed my calls) on the phone with pharmacies & my ins. co. it was discovered that NONE of the drugs Dr Knee requested for injection were covered. But....after relaying all of this to the Dr. they called me back & said they have 3 vials of Synvisc in their office. It was ordered for another patient who changed their mind. If not used it is discarded. They offered it to me free of charge. Kevin had this but his knee was so far gone it didn't give much relief. Since I'm getting surgery in the fall I said I"ll take it !!! I'm going in Wed morning
We're researching crematories down here. Kevin's parents had pre-planned & it made it so much easier for us -- even more so being 600 miles away. We want that for our kids.

Despite the insurance bad news, I'm glad this turned out to be good news for you!!
I believe I am FINALLY finished planting outside. No more hanging baskets to buy/fill; all the large flower pots are filled so that's about it for me this "spring".
We are tenderly caring for the large area of sod that we had put down. Watering extra hours during the night and keeping a close eye on the weather for any extra help we can get.
Hi there! I got my boat out for the first time. A young couple fished off the dock by the ramp. They had a newborn in a carrier all bundled up. I told them they were starting the little one off right.
Linda, that medecine denial sux! Glad it worked out.
If I wasn't fishing in this all day rain,I'd be home doing something stupid.

Today we went to Parco Archeologico Naxos Taormina, site of al Teatro Antico di Taormina, thought to have been built by the Greeks back in the third century BC. Only 11,379 steps today, but it feels like half of them were going up and down actual steps.
I was just minding my own business and the the next thing I know I'm the same age as old people….

Was the little one fishing, too??
Ha! The baby was months old, but it was touching to see the young family out.
