I can't believe summer is almost over



It's been a great summer here in the Poconos, even with the trips back to Philly for chemotherapy. Now it's the 17th of August, summer has flown by.

I'm still doing OK, had what I hope will be the last treatment for a while a week ago today. As ususal, energy has been low but I've still managed to play (I use that term loosely) some golf and get in some short hikes. I love to wander around in the woods looking for butterflies willing to pose for my camera. Next week I'll be sneaking out for some late summer fishing up north.

Later this month I will get a combined CT/PET scan, that will show if the cancer is in remission or not. Keep those fingers crossed.

We're going to get out to Montana to see Zach in September and do a little fishing while we're there. We might even do some hiking or sightseeing!

We had some friends over for dinner - the theme was 'Comfort Food'. We made my Mom's 'Best Ever Meatloaf', and it was! Also Blueberry Peach Cobbler. Calorie counters were not permitted. I have dropped in some pix of Ellen and me with the results. There were no leftovers.

So life goes on, hope to see amny of you in the fall!
