stardate 45/55/71 [some people asked to have the countdown back]

This town is baseball crazy. The first series the Astros, won by the Astros the hospital was bezerk. When we went for a walk early this morning, yes kids Pam went for a walk early in the morning, at least half the staff were wearing Astros gear or at least baseball gear. I don't plan any medical issues between 3&7 central time. Actually, we were able to get a hall pass for this evening. Pam & I will be going out for dinner with John and Carol. My first trip not teathered since our illfated TRIP 1 leaving Anderson.

We did have a private Shofar blowing by the Chabad Rebbe. It was nice to know that all of you were hearing the same shofar sounds wherever you were, that we heard here in Houston

The Rudman clan is doing well,we've still got a ways to go, but now its only recovery from the transplant. Keep those prayers coming in. Your blogs are always a treat for us to look at.

Go 'Strows [that's Astrows to you city folk]
