Love the Harvest, Harvest the Love

Camp Courage friends
 My camp adventure ended at the base of 150 ft. climb, that we all repelled down. A fabulous ending, and our final acts of courage together in this trip.
I will cherish the harvest of love I received, and do my best to pay the feeling forward, again and again.

Upon my return home I was greeted by this wonderful garden bounty. I had more than this, and like to share with my neighbors. I hope they enjoy the fantastic freshness in their own homes.
I started my breakfast with coconut oil date of onions, some summer squash, and green beans from my harvest last night. I scrambled in some eggs, and topped it off with some feta cheese and heirloom tomatoes. I am always thankful for the dekiciis combinations that come from a little hard work, and perservierance.
My week has been filled with a harvest of love, in many ways.

Camp Courage 2016

I have the opportunity to attend Camp Courage🦁, a program through my work that is designed to help cancer survivors get back to a more normalized life, and make some new friends we might never have met.
The event is held this time outside of Denver, and I and 2 other survivors will be taught rock climbing!😮
As I waited for the Start of 'camp' I visited a family friend and got to know her better. That was the best part of my trip, being able to build a lasting relationship! From her house I toured Estes Park and took a leisurely Sunday drive down to Black Hawk. What a beautiful, cool drive through the mountain pass!
I awoke early and decided to tour the Denver Mint, learning all about the manufacture of coins and the jobs we provide by hording coins, as collectors. Nice to know we are doing our part to build the economy.
I am currently waiting to coordinate with my fellow passengers, and having fun taking pics for people on the chairlift display. ahhh the scrapbooker in me can't pass an opportunity to build memories!😆TTYL

I recently changed phones, and though I am happy with the upgrade, i was not able to transfer my pics, nor my notes. This gives me a chance to start with fresh thoughts, which I am sure you can't wait to listen to.(I am sure you hear my voice, if you already know me)

Today I am waiting for my flight to Denver. I have been looking forward to spending time with my bother's sister-in-law, and I finally have an opportunity to do just that.

My other reason for a trip to Denver is that I have been invited to attend Camp Courage through my work. The program is participating with First Descents, a program to teach me rock climbing. I know, I never would have tried anything like this in my own. Our company offers this excursion for cancer survivors, to help us conquer our fears, and share with others what amazing things we have already been dealing with. Pretty cool, if you ask me!

So as I embark on my adventure, I thought that maybe some of you have had the opportunity to take on a challenge that you never planned to include, and I'd sure like you to tell me how Fabulous you felt when you achieved your goal.

Ta ta for now!
