Bad Ear
I did get to the doctor yesterday. He said I ha a swimmers ear,which was puzzling because I having been swimming. I must have gotten water in it from taking a shower. Besides the swimmers ear my sinus and allergies are acting up,so this old boy is not real good today. But you just have to go along with whatever comes along and accept it. The doctor gave me a shot for the alleries and sinus problem and inserted an ear wick to help drainage.
Last night was not a good night for basketball if you are a West Virginia fan. Even though I think Villanova has the best team I was still pulling for my Mountaineers.
Today we are going with Sam and Carolyn to "Dennys" to see if we can get in for the free "Grand Slam Breakfast". Nancy and myself tried it last year but the line was out the door and around the side of the building. We saw that and just drove on without stopping. It will no doubt be the sam way today.

Superbowl
What happened to the team that was supposed to win. All you could hear was "the colts" and how good Peyton Manning is and that the Saints didn't have a chance. I've watched my share of ballgames and as good as Peyton is it takes more than one person to win a game. I know there is a lot of if,and,buts after the game. Sometimes you've got to play the game and not listen to all the hype.
I don't usually get up at 4:00am but this morning was not the usual morning. I like to watch the shuttles lift off and being this is the last night time lift off on schedule I wanted to see it. I have seen a few and the night time is more spectacular. Above photo just before lift off,watching the NASA Channel.
Another one with one minute to go.
And finally a view from New Port Richey holding the camera with shaky hands. This is the third one I've seen at night time and I don't get tired of the view. I'm amazed even watching airplanes fly over. Everytime I hear one I've got to look up and watch it fly by.
My ear is hurting a little more and swollen so I guess its to the doctor I go.

Yesterday was good basketball game watching in the both of my teams won. That is West Virginia and Kentucky. I have been following these two teams for a long,long time.
Nancy has been feeling to peppy this week so we didn't go to church today. Also I've got a "plugged up" ear that is hurting,so both of us are a little miserable right now.

Tornado Watch
Yesterday was a very rainy,wind blowing day. We had tornado watches up for most of the day. We didn't get any tornados in our area,but there were reports of several around close to us. We didn't go anywhere with the weather like it was,we just stayed inside all day. Today is a different day with the sun shinning. The wind is still blowing but nothing like it was yesterday. Of course today is saturday and that means basketball games all day long for me.

Dinner and a walk
Yesterday we went to the Golden Corral for dinner with Sam and Carolyn again. Sam likes The price of $4.99 for the buffet and so do I.
After dinner Sam says what are we going to do now? Since they haven't been able to see the gopher turtle here on the park we suggested that we go to J B Starkey Park. Nancy says we always see turtles and armadillo's there just about everytime we go. So we drove through the park and sure enough we saw a gopher turtle. We got out and walked on the short boardwalk that is there. That is when Carolyn thought she could climb on the railing and pick an orange. They were out of her reach so no picking oranges. We also saw a couple of armadillo's.
We had another nice day.

Well the rain stopped and the sun did come out. Sure did feel good to see the blue sky.
Lets what has happened? Aw nothing just usual living,I did get a haircut tuesday and Nancy got hers cut yesterday. Also yesterday was pizza day again. Watched a few ball games. Rest of the time on computer and watching news on the television. Boy it sure sounds like a couple of old people living around here. We have forced ourselves to do a little waling but not up to what we would like to do. Maybe with the weather changing we can get back into the habit of walking more.

Rain
Here is what its looked like for the past few days,so what are you going to write about when you don't get out? I did get out in the rain to go get a hair cut and then fill up the car with gas.
It is a little past noon and the rain has stopped so Nancy and I will go to Walmart for a little grocery shopping and get our monthly prescription on medicine filled.
We are not having our typical Florida weather this season. The temperature is mostly on the down side with a few days of warmth thrown in. Still better then the freezing weather up north.
