Great news!

I know it's been a while, but here I am (Donna) updating the blog again. That's not the great news. The great news is that I saw the oncologist on Monday and my primary care doctor on Tuesday and all reports are very good. My cholesterol is great, my blood pressure is great and generally all is in good shape. What a great way to start on our winter trek.

We leave on Monday for Victoria, B.C. to visit our friend, Barb. This is our "vacation" after working for 5 months. It's also our present to ourselves for our anniversary and birthdays. We really like this kind of present.

When we get back on the 5th, we'll spend the night here in Portland and then head out for Ukiah on Tuesday. We'll take our time getting there so probably won't be there till close to the weekend. Can't wait to see Julia again. Of course, we also look forward to seeing Beth and Jim. It will be hard to leave Sarah behind, but we're already making plans for when I return in the spring.

No other exciting news from the Clapham's, but we think of our family and friends and hope all is well with all of you. Happy Fall!!!
