Ryland was out of school early yesterday, so he and I stopped by to check in on Grandpa. He seems to be getting better. He was in his room on the recliner watching TV. They are still keeping the residents mostly separated to avoid contagion.
Dad said he recognized me, and he seemed to stare at Ryland for a bit. He said he was doing 'great.' Tried to get him to tell us about his cross country days, sharing Ryland's current news, but he didn't elaborate.
Anna reported that Dad is now starting to show some of what he used to do well before the surgery where he starts to get up on his own, saying he has to do something, so they are keeping a close eye on him. He continues to take walks during the day, eat and sleep well.

The only thing I remember about Dad's Cross COuntry Days, was when he stated that he entered only "one" race. He started out much too fast, so that by the finish he was beyond fatigue, such that he "swore off" running. If anyone remembers anything different let me know, because I know Dad had a way of saying s story any number of ways!
Glad to hear that Dad is on his feet more and eating well.
