    First, great news about your cancer! So glad to hear about it. Second, I can't quite tell, but is that a quilt image? I have seen pretty much that same image in Creede, Colorado somewhere. Let me know.

    Quilt
    Yes, it is a quilt my dear friend Kit Robinson made for me. I took a picture last fall (before DX) of a stand of Aspens in their full glory near Estes Park, CO. You will see this same scene all over the Rockies in Sept. Kit added Long's Peak (on of the 14ers that I can see from my home, albeit from a distance!) and a stream in front. She titled the quilt "Making A Stand" and the label says "For Vicki, who is making her stand with courage and humor." The quilt was featured in the Denver Int'l Quilt Festival, whose them this year was "High Hopes"

    If you click on the avatar, then go to my picture page and click on the picture there, you can see it better.

    Celebrate
    Hi Vicki,
    Great news; ain't NED just grand? My chemo was completed in July of '04, and the annual camping vacation on the lake in Maine that August brought tears of gratitude to my eyes with each day. Enjoy your time away. Recovery did take about a year; I was discouraged at times that I did not just bounce back, but being in my mid 50's at the time may have slowed me down a bit. (Although I was in my best shape ever at diagnosis!) The program sounds like a great idea.
    LOVE the quilt; and you're right to plan things that give you joy.
    Small world dept: this summer, my son will be working in the back country of the Rockies, we think in Estes Park. Part of my 5 YEAR celebration will be a trip out there to see him and Colorado, where we've never been; we can't wait!
    All the best,
    Judy

    Great news
    Vicki, Great news. Take that vacation and live your life. I can tell you recovering from chemo takes time. One month out and my Neuropathy is still an issue, but I feel better than the best times on chemo. Enjoy your travels. You deserve it;
