My Spotlighted Images

My cancer has returned after almost a year of being symptom free. For the next few weeks, I have many doctor appointments and tests to determine and begin the advanced treatment best for my situation. My commenting will be intermittent at best.

Yes, I can put myself there, thanks to your grand picture and great title. (I'd NEED to be greeted by the morning sun if I lived inside those stone walls, without french doors or picture windows that opened to the light !) ;-)

Gas prices wouldn't be so high either. But the sun over the mountains would be nice.
