Two of my volunteer activities are finished until School resumes in September. Four years at the Zoo, three years at the Bolsa Chica Wetlands, great places to work. I also work at our library-I guess you could say I’m a book nerd. What started out as a way to stay busy and keep my grief at a distance – turned out to be priceless. Being with animals and children are like an ice cream cone on a hot summer day. My favorite flavor, those of you that know me, will know it’s Coffee! I have learned so much about monkeys, anteaters, ocelots and yes Snakes! Leading many tours with children K-12 on wild life tours has stretched my brain and helped me to stay in shape. I am so grateful for my freedom, health and the opportunities that have helped me to, “learn and grow.” Missing Lee is always with me. I think I am stronger and managing better. To those of you that are grieving push yourselves to be active ( I know it’s hard.) it pays off big-time. Blessings to all.
Summer is here. I love warm sunny days and extended day light. Yes! My family and are blessed to go to Hawaii together,first trip to the islands since Lee passed. Lee Loved Hawaii – this ones for you honey! I know the Aloha spirit will be with us.
