This beautiful Lady came through today. I saw her arrive and feed solidly for 30 minutes and then she was on her way.
They started early and are continuing to come through late
There is an urgency to them now. Its getting cooler and we are due rain and there is little left for them to feed on and she may be the last I see this year.... maybe...

Just trying right now to breathe.. and put one foot in front of the other... we have to get through this nightmare of a result.
Just want to say too.. we have a very good support system here in our friendships.... that is going to save us... and feed us and give us the will to get past this and rise above it and come out the other side.
Below is excepts from Rudyard Kipling's poem "If"
".... If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:..."
".... Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;..."
"... If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on! ' ..."

Went to see TSO last night... BRILLIANT as ever ! This is our Christmas present to ourselves
www.trans-siberian.com
They give $1 of EVERY ticket sold from EVERY show (150 shows in this tour) to a local to that venue childrens charity.
The 2 shows in Oklahoma City (where we went) added up to over $26,000 between 2 charities for childrens education and mental and physical needs
Over 21 years of tours .. that has added up to well over $21,000,000 .... These people are THE best.

High Flight
by John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,
I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air....
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace.
Where never lark, or even eagle flew —
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
- Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot & never brought to mind ?
Should auld aquaintance be forgot and auld lang syne.
For old lang syne , my Dear , for auld lang syne ,
we’ll tak a cup o kindness yet,for old lang syne.
