Mt Baldy Shines!

Mt Baldy Shines!


Today I was at my 's soccer game and had a beautiful view of Mt Baldy straight ahead...

For the first time in the last 9 months I did not feel depressed looking at it.

As most of you know I have suffered with terrible back pain the last year brought on by complete stenosis of my L3-L5 vertebrates. This problem started a few months after my 60th birthday which I celebrated by climbing Mt Baldy last year... Hiking is one of my favorite hobbies and these last few months it looked like I may have done the last of it. I could barely walk, and found myself becoming more and more if a recluse.

Looking at the<b> mountains </font></b>only brought back memories that triggered a deep sense of loss....

Today, although I still have a long way to full recovery, I no longer feel the extreme pain that could only be relieved by sitting or lying down.

Today I felt Joy looking at the<b> mountains.... </font></b>Maybe next year I will shoot for Mt San Gregonio! (sp?)

I used to love to hike Baldy. I am so happy for you that you have come through these health scares. I look forward to some great hiking stories.

There is a difference between a good BJ and a bad BJ.
