Side Trip to the DR...

Well, I guess we needed one mishap on this otherwise perfect trip... Hours after I posted my last blog Greg's stomach started to be "on the bump". He was down for the count and pretty much slept the day away... When he "wasn't any better" the next morning we took him in. His mind thinking up all the things that could be wrong is more threatening to him than the actual ailment. ANyway, it's a good thing I went in with him because even as I sat there he had this NP convinced she needed to send him into the hospital for je-ardia(SP) tests!! I finally stepped in and said it could not be that as we have not been remote camping for three weeks, AND David and I are not sick (we are the only real water drinkers in the fam...Greg drinks flavored, bottled water!) He's good!! All he needs in life is a skittish DR and he could get and med or operation he so desired!! The diagnosis... a slight case of food poisoning (he didn't even barf!)...which we had already determined at home. Remember the fish dinner he made the other night? Well, he only washed his hands with baby wipes so there must have been some cross-contamination. He is on the mend (reluctant tho he is to admit it...) and we are thankful.

Greg must have anxiety about his up coming job interview. It's alright,Greg, you'll do great. You are well qualified. Remember when you had angina! Just kidding you. Relax and enjoy the last leg of your fabulous trip. The kids will have a nice memory. I know it is probably pedal to the metal now. Drive safely.
Love and kisses to all,
Snowwhite(aka Mom,Gams)
P.S. Tams is probably right you might have had a touch of food poisoning. I hope you are feeling better.

Well, the Sasquatch family thinks Greg is going to be fine once he gets settled in Colorado.

The Greg Zydonis family left a secure Sasquatch protected area of Alaska for a southern unknown frontier where the Sasquatch family thinks heathen druid luddite cults live in strange ritual silliness.

Sasquatch has known Greg since his Little League Baseball days and knows Greg has the fortitude to control his own destiny.

Sasquatch is not worried about the Greg Zydonis family. The Sasquatch family is worried about the lower 48.

Go get'em Greg.
