In mid July I asked, "But God, how could I possibly organize an expo all by myself !?" (not having one vendor on board)...
He spoke to my heart and said, "Oh, but you are NOT alone!" I did it to show everyone (perhaps myself too) I was not...
we are not.
I was awarded summer 2010 with a terrfic honor... The Soroptimist International Ruby Award by our local Saratoga Chapter. In this picture I was celebrated in Saratoga Springs 2010 Flag Day Parade.
This was one of the greatest moments of my life. As I beamed waving to onlookers who did not know me or why I was riding along...I saw one woman. She knew why I was in it. She cried, touching her hat, and wig I think, giving me the thumbs up. It was certainly one of the greatest moments of my life. -To God Be The Glory! I am just along for the ride!
lThe night I shaved my hair off after my first round of chemo February 2009...
to then be honored just 16 months later in Saratoga, NY's Flag Day Parade! Wow.
February 5th- CHOWDERFEST 2011
