Have you ever had just a great day where everything was perfect? Well, today was one of those days. Everything was absolutely perfect. It was one of the greatest days of my life (which is pretty big for 26 years worth of days)! There was nothing extravagant and there was no enormous event that occurred, but it was very fulfilling and wonderful. I had to get up around 8 in the morning to get dressed because I had made a promise to Sherry that I would go with her to the doctor. Her ankle had been hurting in her Achilles heel for a few months and we decided it was time for her to go get it looked at. Everything seemed to be fine, nothing big, just some over exertion. After the doctor appointment we got in the car and headed for the Louisville Zoo. We got to walk through the whole park and see all of the animals there.

After the zoo went to a nice Italian restaurant for dinner. The food was good. I had a BBQ chicken pizza and Sherry ate some chicken.

We had come up with a neat idea to buy each other a gift to give to each other when I leave tomorrow and open them when I got on the plane, so we drove to the St. Matthews mall and bought gifts for each other.
By the time we got out of the mall it was getting later in the afternoon and so we decided to do what we always do and go catch a movie together. “A Lot Like Love” was the name of the movie that we saw. It was a nice romantic comedy with Ashton Krutcher and Amanda Peet.
On our way to the movies we saw this odd looking van and had to take a picture of it.
When we walked out of the movie it was getting late and the sun was setting. I drove up to a little park near our home on Ft. Knox and parked the car. The sun had just set and the sky was slowly getting dark. We just stood there and held each other and watched the sky get dark and talked for a little while. It was the perfect end to a perfect day.

After we got home, Sherry helped me pack my bags for tomorrow and we just lay in bed and hugged while we fell asleep. It was a great day.
