Life Is A JOURNEY! :)
Mood:  celebratory
Now Playing: Day 2644-Next GP Chapter... Turning Lemons Into Lemonade :)

 

Talking about EXCITED!

 

Nah... More like... SUPER  EXCITED! A bit nervous too!

A time to celebrate life with another new journey. This time it was the once-in-a-lifetime musical kind of journey!

A same-day road trip to finally see Journey in concert with the best seats in the house! One of THEE best Christmas gifts that a gal could ever wish for and which I vowed to not go to waste! I didn't care how I was going to get there, but hell or high water, I WAS GOING! Heeheeheehee!

Thanks to Ben and Kyle for providing the first of many important must-haves in order to make our journey as comfortable as can be out on the open road. This Yukon was not only spacious and quite roomy, but it also had really nice heated seats and every kind of optional feature one could ever want or find in an SUV. I thought the expedition that our insurance company reserved for us to use while our car was getting repaired was nice, but this Yukon is actually a lot nicer! I can't begin to explain how much more comfortable the ride was while sitting for a little over 3-hours up and 3-hours back since we had to do a same-day trip for medical reasons. I also have to make sure not to push things beyond my physical limit since I am still going through immunotherapy treatments.

Where there is a will! By golly! I will find a way through my JOURNEY!

The 3-hour drive didn't seem too terribly bad, although we had to make quite a few pit stops so I could get out to stretch and be kind to my kidneys along the way. With lots of healthy beverages for me, snacks for Eric and Journey's greatest hits to listen to while driving out on the open road. A little over 3-hours later and realizing they were actually an hour behind us... Decades later... Not only a dream come true, but a Bucket List in the making was finally realized! 

I MADE IT!

With nothing, but sheer determination and a bunch of photos to follow! We finally arrived to our destination! Thank YOU to my dear friend, Cheryl in LA for such an amazing shirt that she personally made with beautiful tiny Swarovski Crystals (letter 'T' accidently hidden in photo) which also made it to my...

JOURNEY!!!
