It was a busy weekend. I marked the calendar for it, but it slipped my mind. This morning (Monday), I sent Mom off to a short-stay elderly care facility. I will enjoy my first respite break this year for four nights and look forward to relaxing. A university professor has invited me to speak to his class of clinical laboratory science students about the States, its culture, people, healthcare, etc., for 90 minutes. I will get ready for it so it won't be a total getaway. I booked a ticket to return to Ann Arbor in late June. My sister, who lives and works in Montana, will take my place. Our mom is on the waitlist to get into a nursing home. We are hoping she will be able to move in by late summer. If not, I will go to Japan again in the fall.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Kenji</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, May 17, 2024 at 11:10 AM Bob Dinan <<a href="mailto:bdinan83@gmail.com" target="_blank">bdinan83@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Gentlemen,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Has anyone been able to see the Northern Lights this week?
