Goodbye Bike ~ For now.....

Well, this is a two-post day it seems.....! Tried riding my bike today for the first time since knee surgery. That is my "outside" bike. Didn't work. Everytime my left knee bent I went ooowwwww! Then started to fall off. Needless to say I parked it under the carport where it might stay until I give it away. Don't know if I'll ever be able to ride it again. Very frustrating since I was looking forward to possibly hitting some good bike trails with Ken this spring up near Grafton. Had high hopes! Those shattered today......I'll have to stay inside and ride my incumbant bike and look at the walls! Grrrrrr.........

Happy Mother's Day

The real religion of the world comes from women much more than from men - from mothers most of all, who carry the key of our souls in their bosoms. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes

Happy Mother's Day to the best mother in the world!

Destin, Here We Come


Now all I'm thinking of is I am gonna be in Destin a week from today.....sunshine and ocean, here I come! We are going with my mom, dad, sister and brother-in-law and it's going to be a very special time of sharing. While there we'll celebrate Mother's Day and my mom's 73rd birthday; since we are arriving later than usual this year. The last three years we've been in Florida on her actual birthday...this year plans changed because of a wedding scheduled this weekend.

So looking forward to a warm sunny week of shopping, sharing and spending time together on the beach covered with beautiful white sand looking out over the blue-green waters. I so dream of living near this beach.....! Hopefully that dream will be visualized in four years or so. I want to live out the rest of my life near what I consider to be one of God's greatest creations...that beautiful and awesome ocean!
