vacation

We spend last week at Kanuga, in Hendersonville, North Carolina, as we do the first week of August every year. We were able to arrange a 3 bedroom cottage this year instead of two, so I didn't have to have my sleep disturbed by John's disturbed sleep.  But it was still closer quarters than we are used to, and returning after a year made John's decline more visible.  He wasn't able to do the whole walk around the lake this year--the easiest hike.  And it takes him so long to get dressed, though he can still do it himself (except his socks and shoes).
