We Are Healthy!

We completed all of our tests on Tuesday and Wednesday and then visited with our doctors on Wednesday and we are both healthy.  I have a slightly elevated cholesterol  which can be handled with a diet (ugh!) but John came away with almost no changes in his lifestyle.  It’s just not fair that he can eat bacon and I can’t!

Tuesday afternoon we spent four hours looking at, measuring and comparing water faucets for the kitchen and bath in the RV.  I think we made the right choice.

Wednesday evening was a fun time at the Swiss Fest in Bern, MN.  My Aunt Shirley, Uncle Harold, John and I left Rochester at 4 PM to drive the 30 minutes to Bern and we still were not the earliest arrivals for oven fired pizza.  This little church, Swingli, in Bern started this Wednesday night event a 58 years ago and it has grown tremendously over the years.  They have two wood burning outdoor ovens that can cook only 4-6 pizza’s at a time.  People come to sit on the hill side surrounding the church, bringing their own tables and chairs, drinks and snacks.  The entertainment starts at 6 pm with a Swiss band, followed by yodelers and an Alpine horn concert and then flag throwing.  It was perfect weather and we enjoyed people watching and wondering how much longer we would have to wait for our pizza.  Our second pizza was 1-1/2 hours in the making.
