Celebrating Life
Punxatawney Phil saw no shadow yesterday, noting spring will be on its merry way and I occasioned the final birthday of my fifth decade.

Finding the Cyber Knife
On Monday we played golf as it would be the last time this week. As we were teeing off on #3 we looked over and saw Charles and Annette, fellow work campers just a hole behind us.
