Another place to eat is the restaurant on the ground floor of the Days Inn. Slow service like every place we have eaten but everyone is pleasant. Food was good. A burger and fries was $11 for a big thick burger. I had a Roast beef and fries, also $11. Wife had wine for $4. Twice. Both sandwiches were big enough to take 1/2 back to the room to put in the fridge for later. I walked 2/12 miles in the same direction as the medical center on Pratt street this afternoon to a Family Dollar.It is a very long walk. Got half way and my wife could go no more so took her back to the room and set out again. You cross MLK boulevard and keep walking. On the south side of the road was the railroad museum. Cool Round building I assume was the old roundhouse. Family Dollar is on a street or two following the roundhouse. There is a bus stop on the corner of that street. I was told the bus there does not go my way. If you look Down HILL from that corner you will see the last 3 letters of Dollar. Walk down the hill and you will find the letters are on the back side of the store. There is a whole shopping center there with a grocery store in the center. Had I known this I might have hired a cab and taken my wife shopping. $5.96 at Family Dollar bought me 35 bottles of water, 1/2 gallon of bleach and 1 bottle of alcohol. Was not easy carrying that 2 1/2 mile back but I did. Cleaned the $#it out of this room when I got back.

Did not stop at the Ethiopian restaurant but it is on Lombard and within a block like Richard says. Sounded interesting. May have to check it out before we leave if I am up to it.

Weather was very warm today. It was cool this morning when I left, 57° but quickly warmed up. I was wearing a sweat shirt and jacket due to a threat of rain and about burned up on the long walk back from the store. Cities create a warm eco system of their own. This is a picture 1 block west of the medical center. Flowering cherry trees.

thank you. dozed most the evening as much as a headache allows. surgery seemed to go well.Back to hotel at 1:20. I understand 22 cm titan plus 1 cm extender. nothing in writing. told bend not all gone. 2 issues to fix it would have required degloving and 2 hours more surgery each. Maybe in time it will get straighter. Too much time and too much scar tissue from last implant. Lucked into fishing reservoir out through scrotum. Student happened on it so no second incision. At this point or maybe long acting pain injection that it not worn off, the reservoir pain and tubing locations from old location are more comfortable than they have been in a year. So are tips at glans. came back to hotel in a nice jock strap made in
u.s.a. not a cheap chinese thong like vanderbilt. Have a mummy. SORE where new reservoir is.
