Last day in Smith Center

Took Uncle Howard to Grand Island yesterday. His eye surgery is scheduled for Friday. I found someone to take him but he is so darned independent. Hope he doesn't try to drive himself.
I have cooked dinner nearly everyday rather than eating out. Trying to fix food Uncle Howard enjoys. He had mentioned liking butter beans and cornbread so that was dinner yesterday. I sent the leftovers home with him. He seemed to like that better than anything. He is very appreciative. He thanked us dozens of times for being here. I really hope he does move to Washington this year. His brothers want him to and they have family that will help him. He has so much 'stuff' to get rid of before he can move. Yikes. I told him about a company that will come in and sell it for him. But as he says about his brothers advice, 'I can pretty much make up my own mind'.
Well, on towards home today. Should be there by Friday evening or Saturday morning at the latest. Calvin's work is ready and he is getting calls.
It has been a good trip.
