David, Sam,
and Jim watched the World Cup Colombia-Greece game in David’s room on the tenth
floor of Lunder. David’s in good spirits and enjoying Sam’s daily visits. Sam
has gone to MGH daily for his injections. Today he lost in Axis and Allies to David. A few days ago David beat Brian Sweeney
in an intense best of three chess match.
Tomorrow
David’s new home teachers will bring him the sacrament. Starting on “Day Zero”,
Monday, David will have to avoid public activities: no church, no movies, no
public transit, etc.
He will be
able to receive visitors at home, as long as they are perfectly healthy and
over the age of twelve.
Sam, Jim,
and I attended a lovely wedding reception of Mie Inouye’s and Ryan Davis’s at
the Old Manse, in Concord, MA. Nathaniel Hawthorne and his new bride, Sophia
Peabody, lived there, very much in love. It was a perfect New England Flag Day:
sunny, pleasantly temperate, the countryside alive with green.

I am SURE David would beat me at chess, too. Anyone interested in a game or Scrabble or Balderdash? Never enough Scrabble in My life.
