My 2 Year Anniversary

We celebrated the 2 year anniversary of when I discovered my breast cancer by going to the Davey Crockett National Forest at Lukfin, Texas. The weekend away, letting Sandy run & play in the woods, was nice. We relaxed and did whatever looked fun.


But personally, we have better forests than that right here in Rowlett!!! The interesting thing was the damage done by Hurricane Ike that far inland. Huge trees were just snapped in two or blown over roots & all from the wind. The only camping area we found with restroom facilites was closed due to damage from the storm. There were branches everywhere that were brown from the wind damage.


Sandy really enjoyed the forest floor because it was full of little branches and pine needles and such. It felt good to roll in it. We just sat on the downed tree and enjoyed watching him play. It was so quiet, only the chirp of an occasional bird. And then there was Sandy!
