Living life to the fullest

19 Replies

I got out last week for a 4 night astronomy event under the beautiful night sky in northern California. Here's a picture of a father and daughter in the group.

Just wanted to share something positive. We are all going through so much and I know I need to remind myself why I am doing these treatments: So I can live life to the fullest!

Wonderful Post, Gregg!

Follow your Bliss!

Hope you had a happy Fathers Day, too.

For those who know astronomy, that's the center of our Milky Way Galaxy right above the heads of the Father/Daughter in the center of the photo.

Gregg, I am so glad to see you living life to the fullest! We just finished a week on the Cornish Coast. Port Isaac, St Ives, Newlyn,Lands end and mousehole. Now we are at Twikenham stadium in London. The Rolling Stones are playing here tonight. We see the concert then tour London sights in next few days and fly home. It is early morn now, I am up having coffee. Keep living life to the fullest. I have been walking about 4 miles up and down hills here everyday.

Cancer or no, that's what it's all about.

Can't forget the stuff that makes us tick, there is no better medication. Our minds are constantly racing about cancer and whats coming at us next. Doing the things in life we are passionate about is by far the best therapy!

I’m an amateur astronomer myself. But I have to admit I like your dark skies better. Great picture.

I'm going to another in July with even darker skies. There are some very large telescopes at these events. Lots of great views. Clear skies to you.

That's awesome! Another big astronomy fun over here. Have been around scopes since childhood: grinding mirrors, designing and testing optics, building mounts and clock drives. Nowadays one can buy everything cheaper in stores. It's been a while since I've driven to dark skies. I have a bunch of scopes in house and usually put one out for the guests any time they staying late. Still smile when they are dazzled with views of our Solar system and some brighter objects in the nearby Universe. Enjoy it!
