We made it to the confluence of the Brant Creek and the big Tahquamenon River. A long and twisted hike to be sure. Naturally, it rained most of the day. I thought it was a great day and so did the dogs! Photos will be posted tomorrow. Sign in to see full entry.

Besides some writing, I am going to indulge my other passion today. If it rains as it is expected to do, we are going to wander back out by Brant Creek (see the photo I posted a couple of days back) to look for more photo angles and some of the black obsidian that seemed to be laying all over the...

Raining... again... better yet... still. It's about 40 or so, not bad for this time of the year. If the weather lets up for even an hour, my friend from down state and I are going to follow Brant Creek on its way to the Tahquamenon River. It isn't a long hike, but it could get a bit foot loose along... Sign in to see full entry.

If you've seen my photos of eagles and landscapes, then you kind of get what I do when I'm not writing. I don't have a fancy camera, but I was taught very young on how to take photos and sneak up on critters. Photography is every much a passion as is writing, but I suspect that you could see that.

A lot of stuff today. I had a huge outcropping of skin cancers that were mostly all frozen off with liquid nitrogen. It's always weird when you see smoke rolling off your face. On other fronts, I'm not sure where I stand. Yet. The doctor I saw today acted as if he was holding something back and has... Sign in to see full entry.

I've posted a number of things tonight because I have to be at the hospital first thing in the morning. My post in "The Brick" recall a number of memories, both good and bad for me. Check it out if you get bored. Once again, I thank those of you who emailed me or posted notes of encouragement.... Sign in to see full entry.
And it's raining today, canceling my plans to go out to the Dollarville Flood plains again. If it were 45 instead of 35, I'd consider it, but it's not worth getting sick ahead of some medical stuff. I look at it like this - If I'm still here the day after we do this, the trees will still be there.... Sign in to see full entry.

I used the stress of knowing what the next few days will hold for me to help me get past some painful words and events in "The Brick." I added about 3400 words this afternoon. I want to thank those who left well wishes. It means a lot to me, but know that I fully intend to rise above this stuff.... Sign in to see full entry.
The Big Freeze Begins Wednesday
Welllll. We'll know in a few days what is what here. They basically stripped me and had me stand on a stool so they could search my skin for cancers, and they found a lot of them. They ordered a number of tests to do more testing for specific chemicals in the blood for certain kinds of cancer... Sign in to see full entry.
