Larry and Teddy's Excellent Adventure

Today, Thurs. 9/27/07 was a go to town day for us. At 8:45 am I had an appointment at Dr. Peters' (my knee surgeon) office in Traverse for a final check-up.

First I had to go down this hall and get some X-rays taken.







Luckily this didn't apply to me.











Then they sent us into an examination room down this hall.



When we entered the exam room I saw that they already had my x-rays on display for the Doc. to see.





Then we settled in for the long wait for the Doctor to arrive.





Here are some of the things that I saw while we were waiting.






Finally, Doctor Peters entered. He seemed quite pleased with my progress and wants to see me next May when we come back to Northern Michigsan.




So we stopped at the "Check Out" window and made an appointment for next May







It was still quite early so we decided to go to McDonalds for breakfast.


Teddy had a breakfast burrito & a senior coffee...




...and I had an order of scrambled eggs & a senior decaf.






After a while it was time to go Meijer's grocery as Teddy had made a date to meet one of her old High School chums there at the lunch concession.



While Teddy and Carol were hashing over old times, I finished the daily newspaper crossword and then wandered around the store with my camera. After I took these pictures I got 'busted' by management and was told that I couldn't take photos in the store.


So finally after resisting the opportunity to obtain "Instant Credit" we headed for home.
All in all it was a pretty good day and I got some pretty good pictures...don't you think?
