Bob and I spent the day with family on Saturday. Bob picked up his nephew that lives in Chicago, and the two drove 3.5 hours to Iowa City to tailgate and then attend the Iowa versus Nevada football game. Iowa ended up winning at about 2:00 am this morning after a few rain delays. Bob’s group left about 9:30 or so.
I left the house yesterday morning about 8:45 am and walked the 5.5 miles, about 2.5 hours, to visit my aunt who has just had a liver transplant. She has been home from the hospital for about a week. It’s a pretty intense care regimen for my other aunt who is down from Wisconsin caring for her.
I passed the bus that could have taken me north to Janesville, Wisconsin,
my hometown.

It was great to see them both, although there is a long road ahead. I visited for a few hours and then brought the El back (red line to blue line). It was a lovely day for an outing.
