April Showers

We were spared the tornadoes that ravaged the nation's midsection yesterday and today, but there were straight line winds that did some damage in central Illinois this afternoon, including derailing a train in northwestern Peoria County.  Katie and I were on the way home from the grocery store when a storm hit, but we did fine.  Some good news: today's sonogram seems to indicate that the clot in my right calf might finally be gone (it probably had its origins related to the cast on that broken foot I had in December, 2012).  We will know more in a couple months.
