Digital X-Rays

Here is some purple crocus blooming in my garden. Everything is starting to bud in the warm weather.  Those are some lavender plants above them, leftover from last year, I trim them back slightly.



Purple Crocus

Yesterday I went to the dentist for a check-up. I see my cousin. He has trained another cousin as his dental assistant. It's neat, all 3 cousins in the same room. My dental assistant cousin was asked to take digital x-rays this time. They have done away with the conventional machine. This time she plugged some apparatus into a computer and took her images. The computer prompted her by voice when it was ready to take the next image. It's supposed to be a lot less radiation. She made sure to put the protective cape all the way up my neck. I've been reading that this is the correct way to do this. We also had a nice chat (when I could) and caught up with each other. It was a lovely 'summery' spring day.
