Patti challenge is to share celebrations from near and far.
Today I am celebrating my return to blogging after having a total knee replacement two weeks ago! I’m doing well but still have a lot of Physical Therapy in my future.
Fifteen years ago Henry and I celebrated great results from a different kind of health issue. After nine long months of grueling cancer treatments, my doctor told me my cancer was gone! So what did we do to celebrate? Go on a cross country RV Celebration Journey of course!
Surviving cancer made me realize how important it is to live in the moment, enjoy the little things, and celebrate life every day. We met many kind people and at the end of each day we made a toast to the gift of another day.
We toured Vicksburg National Military Park
I fed a Texas Longhorn
We toured Palo Duro Canyon in Texas
We ate steak at the Big Texan in Amarillo
We drove to the top of Sandia Crest with my brother and his wife in Albuquerque
We Wandered around the Garden of the Gods in Colorado
We hiked in the snow in Rocky Mountain National
We wandered around Custer State Park in the Black Hills of South Dakota
We walked across the headwaters of the Mississippi River in Minnesota
I’m still celebrating every day!
