A week from today we will be in California breathing in the aroma of eucalyptus trees, watching the swaying of palm trees, and enjoying the beauty of bougainvillaea. I will also get to hug and enjoy the love of my daughter, Debby, and Laura, Sheera, and James my grandchildren. I have not seen Debby since 2008 and it has been eight years since I have seen my beloved grandchildren. I am beside myself with joy and anticipation and thank ONE for keeping us safe and sound and for providing for this trip.
As far as the book goes, I have not heard from Outskirts Press since sending them my material. I expect it may be Monday before I hear from them again, so I am working on the working summary for the book sellers. I keep finding little things to change. It is the document that will potentially be used to sell my book on Amazon, and in the regular book stores. According to its value to the book's future I will polish it until I have a diamond with great fire; or at least give it my best shot.
I have contracted a mild flue that has made it difficult to get up and blog, so today is no great shakes as far as ideas and thoughts getting written. I am sorry for this as this is one of the last days that I can blog before leaving for the trip.
I am going to try to get to a computer everyday, but I don't really know what I will find once I get to Debby's. I am sure that at least some blogging will take place and I am hoping to be able to tell you every day what we have been doing.
Whatever happens, I ask you not to forget to check in occasionally and see if there is new material up. And, worst case scenario, if I cannot blog at all during the 10 days, I will be back on April 9th and shall resume with a travelogue of our trip, an update on the book, and any new observations we make on this great trip we are so fortunate to be able to go on.
One of the great joys of this trip will be to see San Diego from the eyes of William (12 years old) as he observes so many new sights and has so many neat experiences. We plan to go to Anaheim's Disneyland, Sea World in San Diego, the San Diego Zoo and Balboa Park, the wooden roller coaster at Mission Beach, and to Julian to show William where we had the mine and also to see the desert with the wild flowers in bloom. So much to see and do. I will also see my life-long friends, Christine & Tony, and get to meet with Anders and Scott, Ed Nelson's children, and tell them about the upcoming book and what it will mean to them personally.
I will be thinking of you while I am gone and hoping that I don't lose your interest while I am away. You, and the blog, are very important to me, and I would rather not go on vacation if it means losing your interest. Thank you for your understanding and we will talk about other topics during the rest of next week that we have together.
Have a great day and may you be blessed in all areas of your life.
