Every year Stromsburg, NE has a Swedish Midsommar festival, This year being their 60th, over the Midsommar weekend. We generally attend, and are attracted to the wonderful smorgasbord served over the lunch hours by customed women. We ate much more than we should, but enjoyed the food, and conversation with table mates we just met, and got aquainted with.
   The rest of the day was just hanging out at home.

   Over the past week Carlyn's foot hadn't improved. We went to her own Doctor, more x-rays were taken along with a Doppler and was again told nothing was broken & to keep up with the ice, and pain medication; but we were given a referral to am ortho doc.
   The ortho doc took one look at the x-rays and said a small bone was broken, but there was nothing they were going to do, and to continue our treatment for the next month when she is scheduled for another x-ray.  The news may have not been good but we were relieved to get a definite answer as to why she was continuing to hurt.
   We made a couple calls to postpone our regular trip up to Minnesota over the Forth of July, and Carlyn's Birthday. We felt it would be better if we stayed close to the treating doctors location until after the x-rays and treatment in hopefully complete. We have many things to keep us busy.

   The foot Carlyn hit a couple nights ago was sore and swolen. We called the EMT's and she was transported to the York ER. They took x-rays and determined nothing was broken, but she was told to keep ice on it three times a day, was given a pain medication, and was sent home.

Mike's 50th High School Class Reunion & Banquet
   Friday evening everyone gathered at a local restaurant in Fullerton and there were most of the living 29 classmates in attendance. It was a place where more classes, and individuals were also there and we generally had a chance to catchup with the others.
   The next evening was the formal gathering at the school with a catered supper and a set program. Twenty-two of our class was there, and we carried our celebration over to a bar downtown. I think a good time was had by all!
   When we were back home Carlyn slipped in the bathroom hitting her right foot against the shower.

   We left on May 5, spent a few days in the Dallas area with oldest son and family before pulling into our summer spot at the Polk City Park after getting fuel. It was an uneventful journey (which is good). And we started to get settled in.
