| My Brother Wil and his Wife join me on the Greenway |
I'm so happy to report that I'm finished the Chemo and am now preparing to hike the "Hundred Mile Wilderness" with good friend and fellow blogger, Jack Darnell. My brother and a missionary friend, Gordon B. are also going with us. We anticipate a great time of solitude and evening stories around the campfire!

I have been so busy this summer that it was next to impossible to do anything here at the Blog. Missionary friends were taken up to the cabin, one of my brothers and his wife (Lowell and Janis) were taken to the cabin specifically to pick black berries. One day Lowell and I dug sassafras roots for tea. At other times we just went to mow the grass and check for storm damage.
It seems we have had an unusual amount of storms the last couple of years. Our cabins were spared - but there have been numerous trees that were felled by the winds, clogging the roads. Our neighbor lost several huge trees. Power outages were caused by trees knocking down power lines. But we and our families were spared. Thank you, Lord!
It seems I have more to thank God for than anyone I know. I had my last chemo-treatment about three weeks ago. Then at the CT Scan two weeks ago - the doctor said he could see no more cancer...but...he referred me to another doctor for an ultrasound on my thyroid gland as he thought he saw a nodule there. I had a call a couple of hours ago from the ultrasound doc and they said "ALL CLEAR" on that! Ain't God Good?

Brother Wil and I have been hiking on the local hiking trail in anticipation of the AT. We have been also preparing our backpacks, meals, shelter, etc. This is the brother that lived in Texas for over 40 years and only recently retired and moved here to our town. I'm enjoying having him around.

I MUST SAY - Thank You, my friends who have prayed for me so often over the last six to eight months as I battled cancer. Thanks.
