Yesterday I picked Beech up at his school and took him to McDonald's for lunch and then to his gymnastics class. I the evening I finished reading the book Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, which was given to me by Andrea. She and Liz stayed with me while they were here for the Dermatology meeting in March. It was a very nice novel with a lot of historical information about what a circus was like in America in the depression. I remember going to a circus with my family in Fayetteville, Arkansas, when I was in the third or fourth grade, and the book brought back a lot of memories.

I also watched the movie Patton last night, but I have not finished watching the Special Features yet, so I will comment on it tomorrow.
