Flu Shot Day
Today was our day in Hanley to get our annual flu shots. It is so nice that the nurses come out to our Centennial Hall and give us the shots rather than having to travel to the city and find a location that is giving out shots.

We were scheduled to have our shots at 11:50 a.m., but just after 10:00 a.m. we got a call to advise us to 'come on down' as there was no one waiting. So Sam and I got ready and headed downtown :) We walked in and within less than 2-3 minutes we were done our shots and sitting out having a morning cup of java for our 15 minute wait.

I took this time to pay my taxes for the year and my water bill. I then got to converse with a few folks about the happenings in the community and specifically the upcoming November 11th ceremonies.

This and that led to a couple fellows that sure wanted to hit the links for one of the last times before it gets too cold. It was decided that if the wind stayed down, then we were to head out at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday.

This is great news for anyone who has had a flu shot. After all, you are supposed to use your injected limb to ensure the medicine moves from the injection site to the rest of the body.

To me this also means another lesson in humility on the game called 'golf' :(
