World Series


We left Hillsboro about noon today and headed for Henderson. Our first stop was at Bro. Davis' house and we had a good visit with him. It seems that the bone cancer is stable and his PSA is low but the bad news was that the two spots on his liver have grown in size. He is feeling fairly well but lacks strength. He would love to work in his office but feels best when he just sits in his easy chair. We talked about the Song of Solomon and he gave me some good insights on the subject of whether the book should be taken strictly as an allegory. It was an excellent discussion and his mind seemed as clear as it has ever been.

Our next stop was at my mother's house. The wild hogs have torn her yard up really bad. She put moth balls and hair from the barber shop around her yard hoping that would scare them off. It rained heavily while we were there. She had not received the form for me to sign to allow the county to put traps out. Perhaps it will arrive tomorrow. The picture is one taken about three years ago of my mother's house.

We made it to Janie's parents house and found them doing well. Janie has spent the evening paying bills for her parents and taking care of other odds and ends. My father-in-law is watching the World Series and is routing for the Phillies. God bless you.
