Bethany's Birthday / Kingsley's T-ball

For Bethany's birthday, we did dinner at Red Robin.  Then, we attended Kingsley's first T-ball game.

The Indoor Pool at Timber Ridge / Keegan visits the rig

Here at Timber Ridge Campground, they have an indoor pool. My grand daughter loves going in there.  It was also first Keegan's trip out here.

Update on Connie's chemo

Basically, we're changing her chemo drug from Kadcyla to something that starts with a G. The progression in the lungs and the increase in her tumor markers was concerning enough to make the move. Bottom line is she's going to be going in more often. It's a little more intensive. She goes in today, next Thursday, then off on Thursday. Then repeat the 3 week cycle. We'll do this for the rest of the summer then assess sometime in August to see how things are going. She still also has to meet with the Brain Oncologists in early July after she steps down from the steroids to see what to do about the lesions in the brain.

Cold and rainy here in Ohio

Kingsley and I take on Cedar Point

Had a great time today taking Kingsley to Cedar Point.  Been years since I've been there.  She was amazing.





After our day at Cedar Point, we came back to Timber Ridge, did the pool and Kingsley spent the night.




Of course, that meant breakfast with Gammy the next morning.

Mother's Day in Port Clinton

Had a great day with both Davis families at the Hibachi Steakhouse in Port Clinton for Mother's day.

Strawpineade Rum Drink

Here's a recipe for a home made, cool refreshing blender drink.

First, I made a can of frozen lemonade of 64 oz.  I split that off, leaving me 32 oz. of straight lemonade in the blender (which has a max of 80 oz) and 32 oz in reserve for the 2nd batch.

I filled the empty lemonade can with Bacardi's Pineapple Rum and put it into the blender.

Next, I put 5 rings of pineapples plus a smidge of pineapple juice.  (Why 5?  because I had 10 and saved the other 5 for the second batch).

Now, the measurements get a little on your own. I added some frozen strawberries and ice cubes to get up to my max fill line.

Blended that all together and wasn't happy with the samples, so I added half a can (6 oz) of Pineapple Soda for a little fizz.

Perfect.  Enjoy.
