 CS> Yes, I hope all goes well.  It should.  We waited this for Don's moore

 CS> and he'll be 75.

Doesn't sound lke a fun time, hopefully he's feeling better by now. I
remember my dad having bilateral hernia surgery when I was in college,
then some years later, a repeat on one side.

We'll be hitting the road to home later this week, should get home late
next week. I stocked the camper freezer with a good number of meals but
it looks like we will be coming home with most of them. Between meals
out with family and friends, a couple of banquets, thawed meals going
for two meals instead of the one originally planned and a meal (with
left overs) at a Cracker Barrel one night when we boondocked there, food
hasn't been eaten as fast. For lunch we'll probably finish the left
overs from what we got for lunch at Mo Betta' (Hawaiian in Utah)
yesterday.

 CS> OB Food note:  Terry TTO's Japanese Ginger Sauce/dressing.

 CS> Delightful to add to a fast stir fry (1TB plus compatible oil like
 CS> sesame). Woks with any type of meat and especially well with peeled
 CS> shrimp!

Hmmmmmmmmm, sounds like something we might look into. Had sushi at
Nancy's favorite place in NY State a few weeks ago; so far, that's been
the best sushi we've ever had. A new place opened up in Wake Forest a
couple of months ago so we tried it--and plan to never return. (G)
