Parkinson's Peeps Picnic Pics (Say That Three Times Fast)

Thanks to all who took the time to stop by the Singing Fiddle Ranch for our annual APDSG  Summer Potluck. People brought food and smiles, and below are the photos to prove it. We had perfect weather, no ants, and only two falling incidents, one of which ended up in stitches at the ER.

For those who are concerned, Howard is doing fine. Louise says "I wanted to thank you for your help and concern when Howard had that nasty fall! So much blood! Well, we ended up at Regional Hospital and of course they were busy as could be expected on a sunny Saturday afternoon. After cleaning, numbing, more cleaning, Howard ended up with 10 stitches and a large bandage around his head. We were finally home at 9:30 PM. Howard feels fine and we are so grateful! It could have been so much worse! Thanks again to all the people who helped and others who wanted to help. It is comforting to know we are part of this caring Parkinson's community."

Fortunately we had people with medical training there who made sure that Howard was taken care of, thank you, Jerry and Mike.

Our best wishes and hopes for a speedy recovery go back to Howard and Louise, who handled the situation with calm, level heads.

Thanks again to those that came out.  See you next month back at our usual gathering place in the Pioneer home.

Here are my charmingly amateurish photos...

More edibles than you can shake a stick at, many featuring anti-Parkinson's food, like wild salmon, blueberries and other color-rich fruits and vegetables
