Day trippers

Today we made the trip to Atlanta and back for Emory appointments:  uneventful, and Jimmy's preliminary blood tests look stable.  Our friend Jane Youmans came to the house in the early afternoon to let Andy out, so we weren't in a panic to get back, worrying about him.

Often there is a volunteer pianist playing in the lobby of the Winship Cancer Center

We stopped in Clayton so I could go to the Walmart there, while Jimmy waited in the car.  As I was trudging out, pushing my cart, a man to my right started encroaching on my personal space.  I slowed down to let him pass, and he slowed down.  I picked up speed, and he stayed right with me.

It seemed a little early in the day for a mugging, and I started wondering if I was about to be propositioned by some lonely old geezer with a penchant for older women.  I wheeled around to confront him, but it was just George, King of the Zip Line, come down from his mountain to load up on provisions.
