happythoughts 0 #27 December 23, 2004 Quoteactually my good friend....here in FL its really nice....upper 60's the past two days.....otters are flyin all day long, supposed to get in the 70's next week......layer up Deuce.....im jumpin in warm weather Today it was a little too warm. That long-sleeve shirt that I wore today was a bit much. If I stood in the sun too long, I had to find some shade. I didn't check, but I'll bet it was low 70s. It was a bit breezy for me in the morning, so I waited until the afternoon. I think it was a good call. There was a nice bonfire tonight.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites flyangel2 2 #36 December 23, 2004 Is that an invitation to join you on a trip to Hawaii? If so, I accept. In 1997 I had gotten some airline tickets really cheap to go to Hawaii. It was shortly there after that I found out about my cancer. I knew I had to start my treatments, but I so wanted to go to Hawaii since I had never been before. After my surgery I told my doctor that I was still planning on going to Hawaii, that I was strong enough to handle anything, and I was not going to miss this trip. After my first round of chemo, I was at the doctor's office throwing up in the trash can. My doctor walked in, and I looked up and said, "I'm not going to Hawaii" He agreed. I still haven't been to Hawaii.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.
