Friday, March 4

We've been home for a week and a day.  I posted
my blog from the trip, miss-spellings and all.

Today Connie and I went out to lunch to celebrate
my birthday which was last week.

February 29th-March 3rd
Nothing very excited on February's extra day, 
but on March 1st Robert went to the VA for
a check up and came home with good news.
He is doing well.  His white count continues
to climb slowly but Dr. Klein assures him
that when he needs it there are new therapies
that should keep him going.

In the evening was the Caucus.  Hillary
Clinton vs Bernie Sanders.  Hillary is way a
head in the southern states and Bernie has
done nothing to woo the minority vote so I
think his is a lost cause.  We arrived at
Douglas Elementary school, the site of our
precinct caucus and found 5 other precincts
were there as well.  We got there early, but
there was a line already.  I think the Democratic
committee is so intent on Hillary they don't
realize there is quite a swell for Bernie.  But
we got in and eventually our precinct was
given a room in which to caucus.  Hillary 
gained 34 votes and Bernie 35; Bernie won
in our precinct.  I was happy to see that, but
this is Boulder.  I noted many young people
and many elderly people were in the Bernie
corner!

Kat came on the 1st and 2nd.  I had her cut
back the roses and the perennials, but really
didn't have much else for her to do.  So
she spent the rest of the time working on
pictures.  On the 2nd we went to Lafayette
Florist to buy Lily bulbs, but they didn't
have any yet.  They had boxes of bulbs,
but they weren't unpacked nor priced so
they wouldn't sell me any.  I bought some
seeds and we left.

On Thursday, I went to Frasier Meadows
in the afternoon
