Photos: Trip to Lincoln

Today Larry had an 8:30 a.m. appointment with his dentist in Lincoln.  He was to have his temporary dentures redone, so they would become his permanent backups, and work would begin on the permanent dentures.  Our afternoon appointment was for 3:00 p.m.  That left us with over 6 hours to kill.

When we returned, we learned that the lab tech had been two hours late arriving at the office, and was hurrying to catch up.  Larry didn't get his dentures until shortly before 6:00 p.m. -- and they were the worst-fitting he's had since the day he got the things, exactly one year and five days ago.

Meanwhile, we drove to Fremont to pay for something Larry bought on an online auction, and then we went to the Lincoln Bernina Store, Vintage Village Antique Mall (with a front sloped sidewalk covered with a sheen of ice so slippery we could barely stay on our pegs, despite the fact that we both had rugged rubber tread on our shoes), and the Goodwill.  We didn't buy anything at the Bernina Store, though I did promise to return, and we saw nothing we wanted at the Antique Mall, but I hit the jackpot at the Goodwill, finding seven skirts and one blouse in my size that didn't look worn at all.
