You’d be surprised what a good time you can have when you least expect it—take it from one whose epitaph may someday read: “Reluctant Traveler: Had fun anyway!” Do follow doctor’s orders, Pat, but don’t listen to those who tell you the return isn’t worth the effort. It is—just not at the cost of your health.🤗

I hope so Susan! So far I've seen a huge dragonfly with the most beautiful iridescent wings! That's starting things off right.
