Fall Picnic
Good morning or Good Evening to some. The statement applies to when you read the paper. I am back and thankful to the Lord for his Grace and Mercy for my return. I was told if you stay in the hospital for more than 4 days you are sick. So, I guess I was sick, I was two days short of three weeks. Home now thankful to be there.
