#11-27 Frank home to RV 8-6-2011

We are still parked at Frank’s nephew’s home in Terrace Heights just outside of Yakima. We have been here over a month now. Thank goodness for special relatives.

While I stay in the RV, Frank has a large room at the rehab center. His view isn’t the greatest, but he spends as much time as he can doing his exercises. When I come to visit I work jig saw puzzles. In the evening we watch TV together.

The two puzzles above were in the same box. There wasn’t any picture to go with the first one. But I got them together!! Even with missing pieces.

Good-by Good Samaritan Rehab Center. You did a good job for Frank!

I brought Frank back to the RV on Saturday Aug. 6th. It is really nice to have him back with me. The next day we had a bar-b-que out by Bernie and Ava’s pool. Frank was able to get there using the walker that we borrowed from our nephew’s mother-in-law.

Frank is really good about doing his exercises!

He is still using the walker to get around and being really careful to not fall again. The Dr. told us that it will really take about 3 months for everything to heal and it has only been 6 weeks since he was operated on.

We are happy right where we are until he feels like heading out. Because this is close to where he grew up, there are lots of people to visit and we get many invitations for events and outings.

Our parking facilities at nephew, Bernie and Ava Allard’s. Their RV is an 86 Beaver and is parked right next to ours. Looks like an RV park!

Their pool is right in back of the RV, but we have to go around through a gate. They have a beautiful yard and great view. Couldn’t ask for more!

We ended up staying a little over seven weeks. Frank graduated from the walker to a cane in just 2 weeks. He is quite amazing! Thank you so much Bernie and Ava for putting up with us and our RV home!
