Summer almost seems to be here

The last few days have reminded me of summer.  Temps have been in the mid 80's and it has been sunny. It sounds like it has been a far cry from what St. Paul MN is experiencing. 
I had, what I think, is my last PT appt yesterday.  My right wrist is feeling pretty good and I am expecting the Dr. to give me a passing mark when I see him on Tuesday.  He really HAS to as I have a tennis match scheduled for Wednesday.  Of course I would cancel if he says NO.  I was a bit disappointed yesterday as I felt the strength in my right hand was not what I expected.  On a squeeze test my left was 105 and my right was 55.  It should be 110 or so as I am right handed and it should be more than my left.  The PT guy said it will just take time to get the strength back so I should not be concerned. 
Even though it is only April 5 it looks like things will be getting a bit more busy now.  Aaron and family next Sunday, John and family the Sunday after that, Key west 3 day trip to take in 3 national parks after that and then it is time to start to think about heading north.  We continue to look towards the summer which will be full of camping and traveling. 
I just finished a book that would be interesting to anyone who is interested in the history of ND and MN.  It is "LINCOLN, LITTLE CROW, AND THE BEGINNING OF THE FRONTIER'S END" by Scott Berg.  I found it a very very good read.
Time to savor the last drop of FP and get the walking shoes on.
