Extremes

Yesterday we were looking at snow pictures and today we are looking at pictures from our motorcycle trip last summer.
It was HOT everyday..90's with humidity to match. We had a great time though...except for one day.
Sue had not been feeling that well late in the day so we knocked off early and checked into the Super 8 in Denison,Iowa. That evening she was having chest pains that would no go away so I called for an ambulance to take her to the hospital. We thought an ambulance was a better idea than riding our motorcycles. Sue rode in the ambulance and I hitched a ride with a police officer.
After about 2.5 hours of tests the Dr. decided that she should see a cardiologist at the heart hospital in Sioux City, Iowa. So Sue was put into another ambulance for a 1.5 hour ride to the next hospital.
I rode my bike over early the next morning because there were so many deer in the area.
To make a long story short, after waiting all day for an angiogram, her turn finally happened at about 7:00 that night. After the procedure the Dr. told me that it must have been gas as she has the heart of a 16 year old. To this day we think she may have had a case of heat stroke. Anyway...the Dr. told us to hang around the hospital for a bit then check out. So at about 11pm we checked into the adjacent motel for the night. First thing in the morning we jumped on my bike and rode back to Denison to pick up our luggage and Sue's bike.
We rode most of the day and ended up in Algona,Iowa getting caught in a thunderstorm. That was pretty exciting! We spent the night there and the headed on home the next morning.
All in all...it was a good trip. We traveled in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota.
Another life adventure for sure! Thanks for stopping in.
