    Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. I'm doing great!

    I see the dermatologist every three months and the oncologist every six months. All of the tests that have been done so far have been clean.

    As an added bonus, another health issue I've battled for a couple of years was recently remedied. I've dealt with AFib, which has had me in a constant state of fatigue. After several failed attempts to correct it, a recent procedure finally did the trick. I feel so good I almost feel like going back to work.

    I just returned to my home in the frigid north after spending a week in Oklahoma. Next week I leave for Florida, where I have a condo on the beach reserved for a month.

    I'm truly thankful for my renewed appreciation for life. It makes retirement even sweeter.

    Here are a couple of pics I took from the deck of my place I just bought in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The pics are courtesy of my (now slightly smaller) TSP account.
    What a difference a year makes. A little over a year ago, I was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer and was facing a year of chemo and radiation treatments. But for some reason, God spared me from that. But thanks to the diagnosis, everything in my life is now better. Emotionally, I have the best attitude I've ever had from fighting cancer. And I'm in the best physical shape I've been in for a long time.
    Life is great!

    This is what it looks like here today.

    That's the main reason I never moved up NORTH!

    Ripper,

    Loved the pics. They reminded me of the camping trip the wife and I took to the Black Hills this past June/July as part of a 5000 mile 12 state adventure. Beautiful part of the country you decided to call home.

    Glad to hear things worked out with the stage 3 cancer. It is amazing how much our attitude towards life changes when faced with such adversity. And with that, I dedicate this video to you.

    Thanks, DA!
    Yes, I often feel like I should pinch myself when I wake up in the morning. It's amazing how much a person's life can change.

    Thanks so much! I'm not much of a country music fan and I've never heard that song before. But I love it! So much truth in it that I never would have fully understood before.
    This really touched me. Thanks again, ravensfan!
