As we approach our third year anniversary of our marriage, i become ever so grateful for these wonderful years and my continued good health (relatively speaking).
The symbolism of Daffodils as a hope for the future led us to seek Spring Flowers in Holland as i hadn't planted to usual several hundred I did the two previous Falls. The house was surrounded by painters. I was feeling pretty poorly, not thinking straight, due to the brain radiation. I totally missed the opportunity until the ground had frozen.
In February, sensing I would be able to make the trip, John and I scheduled a Barge Trip to Holland at the height of the Keukenoff bulb season. We were entertained with a huge variety of Tulips, Daffodils Hyachinths, Orchids and Colors! The theme of the season was . "Flower Power". How beautifully appropriate.

I finished my Live Strong Program at the Springfield Y - although the changes weren't so drastic as I had hoped, I did feel a lot better - which is more important than numbers. I continued a lot of walking on our trip and need to keep it up. If you happen to be in the area and would like to go for a walk, call me and motivate me! Forest Park right around the corner is a great place to walk, especially not that Spring is on it's way.
