At David’s urging, I went for another ride today. Although it is already quite chilly here, the sun was shining, and he wanted me to take advantage of it. I bundled up and once again caught a lift in the trailer behind the tractor. We stopped at the edge of the clearing just above the woods. There are a number of granite ledges here, and he spread a sleeping bag on one. I made my way to the ledge, somewhat more skillfully than the last time we came down. And then I reclined, leg up, sun on my face. What a feeling.

life and breath: outliving lung cancer 
You did seize the day and captured the moment.
Leave you with a couple of poems from Rubaiyat of omar khayyam, (poet, not terrorist). He wrote about ” past my expiration date” thousands of years ago.
Oh, come with old Khayyam, and leave the Wise to talk;
one thing is certain, that Life flies;
One thing is certain, and the Rest is Lies;
The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.
And that inverted Bowl we call The Sky, Whereunder crawling coop’t we live and die,
Lift not thy hands to *It* for help—for It Rolls impotently on as Thou or I.
Free from the hope of forgiveness and free from the fear of punishment and pain.
