I just don't think she has the intestinal fortitude to hang with this man of experiences! She ended up the other night at the Baylor Heart Hospital with chest pains. They kept her a day with a lot of tests and confirmed she has a huge and kind heart in good condition. She had actually quit smoking for so long I don't know if it has been months or years and I caught her sneaking a few lately. We did make it to Japan for a bit and rode the bullet train and had such a great time trying to keep up with my 80 year old uncle. I never knew a man with such short legs could walk so fast and so far!
