Life Journey 2012 - Starting March 17, 2012

Hello Dear Friends & Family ~

Today I begin my first blog ever :)  I am on a life journey of self-discovery, exploration and new travels.  I plan to blog at least 3 times a week, and when possible, daily as I journey this year.  Please bear with me as I use the "I" quite alot to describe things.....  I have just had a birthday, March 11th and realize I am now numbered '57' - what an odd concept to be that old in years, but not in spirit :) I am blessed to have 'aged' well and healthy enough to still get around pretty easily each day.  Sometimes there's the odd 'creak or tweek' in my bones or muscles, but doesn't last long.  

I am preparing to travel to Europe on Monday for a 2 month journey there.  My husband, Greg, lives in Arzheim, near Landau, Germany and we are both looking forward to spending time together again!! Our plans include: Traveling about Germany more - to see new places, as well as, re-visit ones we've enjoyed already.  We plan to explore in France, hope to make it to The Palace at Versailles and into Paris as well.  My dear friend, Tami is going to visit for about a week and we plan to see Rothenburg, St.Goar, and possibly Heidelberg, Munich & Dachau and who knows what else... Greg and I are also going to Ireland and sight-seeing from a Dublin Hotel on our 8 day visit there.  I will be posting pictures and blogging as the next few months go along.

Sean and Anthony are taking care of the home-base in SeaTac and the two cats, Mahina & Max as well.  I awoke early today, and found it snowing heavily from 8:30am to 12pm....appx an inch...altho' it melted pretty quickly away by 1pm as the temperatures rose above freezing.  It was so pretty to watch it fall, I don't think I'll ever get tired of that .... I didn't see or touch real snow until I was almost 11 years old, and we did that along the highway at Mt Shasta Nat'l Park as my family was moving from Lompoc, California (Santa Barbara County) to West Seattle in 1964.... It was beautiful, cold and impressed me for life :) ...

I'll close the blog for now with a picture of my 'Yard Angel' enjoying the new snow a few days ago.... Happy St.Patrick's Day Everyone!!
