Edinburgh Pt. II

The Royal Mile, courtyard adjacent to the Writers Museum.

Followed by: Holyrood Palace, Grayfriars Bobby ( with our daughter doing the ritual ), Various flora.

Next post ( stop ) will be Dublin. We spent three days in Edinburgh, which included going to the Annual Military Tattoo, which was as amazing this time as our first.

Architectural note: Edinburgh is the only major city in the world that does not have or allow skyscrapers. Although the city has an “old town”, the entire city seems old- like stepping back in time.

Recent Idaho Road Trip

Most of these images are from our two day stay in a very tiny town in Idaho called Downey. The mill or grain storage facility must’ve closed years ago, but it this is a glimpse into the American past. This is what is referred to as the high desert.

Times Passage: Then and Now

Our granddaughter as a young child and today, going to her Senior Prom. ❤️

Early Spring Images

A few early Spring images from Seattle. Also, a shot me at the Cancer Center getting my 17th immunotherapy infusion.

Fall: Past Images

Quick health update: original plan was to do immunotherapy for one year, which would’ve ended with November’s infusion. Last month the oncologist told me I would be doing immunotherapy ‘indefinitely’. So, a little disappointing, but you just move on. Not everything in life has a beginning, middle and end.

All good 👍🏻.

Washington Coastline

I’m almost sure this is Sunset Beach, on the Olympic Peninsula coastline. It was taken a few years ago.

Health update: I have a CT needle biopsy this Thursday morning.

Good juju welcome! 🙏🏻.

Be well.

Update-

6 June 2024:

Pathology report came back positive for cancer. I’ll meet with doctors on the 19th and 20th to discuss next steps. Disappointing, but not surprising. This is the third chapter in my cancer journey, which initially started back in early 2019.
