What a chance of a lifetime. You're feeling the best you have in years.

Why wait? A proclamation in 5 years shouldn't dictate what you want to do

today. ( But I know you know that)

Terry,

Well, for openers, I really, really want to do it in style, like, the

Gold Leaf service, and stay in the grand old Canadian Pacific Hotels

along the trip... not to mention have enough $$ saved up for another week

or two in the Rockies afterwards.

In five years, Harry may have been able to retire, and while we'll have

fund limitation, we won't have time limitation.

And, in five years, I may have been able to get a couple of the books I'm

writing which are set in the Canadian Rockies published, and so, that

will be a celebration of that.

The other thing (deep sigh) is that we had an awful lot of out-of-pocket

expenses last year with my surgery and we can't quite afford it this

year. Although I am going to go to Chicago for the Historical Novel

Society Conference in June, and I'm planning my food for that.
