We're back and had a great time. It was around 80 degrees the whole time. Jordan had so much fun. His highlights were going in the golf cart with Papa to get popcorn "corn" and lemonade "ade" at the clubhouse. It was a morning ritual. His other highlight was the waterslide at the Marriot (our good friends were staying there). When he hit the water, he said "more!" Anyways, it was a much needed getaway and everyone was happy.
It is hard to come back to cancerland. I liked the warm weather, perfectly manicured yards and breakfast awaiting me in the morning. Things aren't quite so perfect here, but we are plugging away at his treatment and getting closer to the end, so I guess we'll just have to perservere.

William Henry Davies wrote in "A Child's Treasury of Verse" -
What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows,
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squrrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like stars at night...
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
It's never a waste of time to stand and stare! "For this is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it!" Psalm 118:24
We love you all - and thank you for your testimony of "no matter how you divide it all your time belongs to the Lord!!"

What wonderful pictures of a much-needed vacation. Know the Thralls enjoyed it as much as the 6 of you.
You'll have to treat Jordan to "corn and ade" after every treatment!
Here's to sunshine in the NW! We're coming north next week so will see you soon.
Coast on Palm Desert memories, keep the faith and know you're loved, Julie and Ken
