Can forgetting be good sometimes...?

Like, for example, when you forget to do something that was a daily regimen for a long time? In my case...I forgot to write the blog last night! Wasn't feeling bad; wasn't concerned about what was or was not going on -- just simply forgot that it was time to do something that had, at one point, been a crucial, daily event. I do apologize, if you came to look for it and didn't find it. I will try to do better, though with the next many weeks of hunting trips intermingled with trips to Seattle for Avastin infusions, I can't make any promises.

Wednesday the 16th I get on the Alaska Marine Highway System ferry with Kona and my pickup truck -- headed south for a couple of months. We get out on Friday morning in Bellingham, WA, and head east for Montana, though with a short side trip in Lynnwood to pick up new glasses from Dr. Lugo's office. She has been our opthalmologist for about seven years, and was very helpful in examining my eyes, particularly the left one, after six weeks of high-powered radiation. Thankfully, both eyes are doing well, though I need some minor-level glasses so I can see better. I will arrive in Missoula, MT Friday evening; then turn around Sunday to fly back to Seattle for Avastin. Kona will be staying happily with her long-time dog and human friends in Missoula while I fly back and forth, so that system will work handily.

And then the hunting starts! Wish me well, as I wish you well in whatever activities make you feel good in the autumn...

Oh I hope you get to see the Puchlerz Lodge...but I think you might be missing my parents. They're hard to catch these days! Retirement ya know.

Have a great fall in Montana. Happy hunting -- may you fill the freezer with much good winter eating. Say hi to Ed -- I took him salmon during the retiree reunion -- late retirement gift. Thank you for the reminder to enjoy the fullness and beauty of each day.
