Tuesday...April 16, 2008

Update....

Today Linda is having lunch with a friend....imagine that!

Tomorrow we start our journey to the Long Beach Grand Prix...for a busy weekend...a final for Champ Car....and us!

My brother Darron is flying down to get his motorhome stored in Oregon as the Alcan is driveable pretty soon and he wants it in his home in Anchorage for the summer fishing season....so he will be visiting for a few days.

I have a physical at the end of next week and soon thereafter Linda and I plan on flying somewhere special to celebrate her "journey".....maybe Mexico or Hawaii or...or...we have yet to decide ....but it will be nice...she deserves it!

At the Patroller memorial the other day I attended, I spoke about cancer....and it's effects on everything including relationships...and I quoted in part from the diary of a young cancer victim in Tampa, Florida (it was in the newspaper)...she said...in part... The cancer diagnosis is like a giant boulder plunging into the calm waters of one's existence. Suddenly one is soaked by a splash of fear and uncertainty. She went on to talk about how it is important to live in the present and to be current with and love the people around you....as you never know what tomorrow will bring.

How true this is and I see Linda doing this everyday....she is a winner for sure..in many ways.

Hi Guys,

Sounds like you are both getting back to a somewhat "normal" routine. What a nice feeling it must give you both. Enjoy the ride!!

Love to you both, Kay and John

CANNOT WAIT to see you two at Long Beach!! I'll be around Thursday afternoon/evening, so I hope to run into you then. If not, I'm sure I'll see you Friday.

Have a great flight down here. See you soon!!

You know I have been to alot of meetings lately and hearing alot about Gods Grace. I am tickled to see that you two are experiencing it in your lives. There are no mistakes in Gods world, and you are both a blessing in my life. I loved hearing your wonderful news. Hang in there and take it One Day At A Time... Please give Darron a hug for me and let him know you are all in my thoughts.

Love Ya, Lil Sis
