I certainly hope you're free of skin cancers now. My husband has also had a problem with skin cancer, and it's been years since he's been out in the sun very much. I'm all in favor of railroad travel. I hope your new tram system will work out well. Walking is such good exercise. You seem dedicated, so you'll probably be back at it soon. Hope your wife is doing well. judi

Thanks Judi I need to get back to your stuff. Been a while sorry, busy with stuff. Will be glad when the next Op is over and the oncoming graft heals up so I can get back to what I am enjoying.

You're welcome. Good luck with your cancer treatment. judi
Comment from Sally Law
It always so good to read your blog and catch up. I've been praying for you, your head, Louise and the fires. It looks like some of my prayers are being answered. Yaay!! It sounds like your doctor is trying to alleviate the cancer with this new procedure. Hopefully, this will turn around. Still praying for you, brother.
I've had three people in my family die of metastasized brain cancer. All were smokers. I don't smoke or drink at all. I sat in the sun, too, and both Jackson and I have been in Florida for years. I will have to mark this as I am on a writing retreat and moving to publish my novella. My husband, middle son, and Walkerman are helping me. I am on Facebook but just yesterday. It is very hard to see and manuever around. I am Sally Law. Easy. You'll recognize my photo. Hopefully, I will have it linked to my FanStory posts and upcoming book release. That my goal. Not there yet. I'm still the CEO of my family's business and we had a rough year. There's a lot going on. In it all, God is good.
Life in Australia seems so different from my own. It nice to journey along with you. Sending you my best today as always,
Sally xoxo

Hi Geoff, this is a terrific write. I didn't know you have skin cancer, but what they can do today by way of treatment is wonderful. Let's hope they don't find anything else. A great write which I enjoyed to read. All best to you and Louise. Ulla :)))

Can't remember if you are on Facebook? If you are even if we are not friends on there, those links should work for the tram videos if you wanna look. Thanks for the lovely review. Will let you know the result when I get it next week.

No, I'm not on facebook. I appreciate that you will let me know the results. Sorry, I didn't have a six this time. It's very well written. Ulla.:)))
Comment from Sasha
I share your joy of walking but it has been quit awhile since I've been able to walk 3 kilometers in a single day. I do hope your experience with skin cancer takes a holiday and no more appear on your skin. Take care and thank you for sharing your travels with us. I always enjoy them.

Comment from Joan E.
Thank you for bringing us up to date with your "ramble" a la Sasha. My son would be especially proud of your train trips (he's a Federally Certified Train Engineer and drives the Filmore and Western for fun on weekends) and I am glad you are doing more walking--great exercise. I wish you a speedy recovery from your cancer surgery on your head and a smooth grafting procedure. My husband had a male mastectomy at age 12 and has been cancer-free for 63 years--he also sunbathed unprotected a lot as a child. You too can beat the Big C! Gentle hugs

Thanks Joan. Have only heard of one or two other Male breast cancer issues. I think folks for get men can get breast cancer too. At 12! How sad.

Thanks Sis. Good hearing from you in here. Have you fixed your Facebook account yet still getting notices from that hacker about some big money they reckon is around. Rubbish! I am not responding.
Comment from Iza Deleanu
I am so sorry about your new adventure in Cancer land. I feel your pain, my dad and mother-in-law went through this for a couple of rough years, but God decided that he needs them upstairs, so he took both of them last year.
I love your optimism and joy of walking and exploring new things. I am not for Australia, but I would like to come and discover the described new tram lines. Thank you for sharing and please enjoy life to the fullest and keep on writing this beautiful memories.

Thanks new friend. I still need to check out your stuff. You did another review on my other story a week or two ago. Much appreciated.
Comment from robyn corum
Geoff,
Good to hear from you again and good to hear that you are getting out and enjoying those trains. *smile* I hate to hear about the issues you have coming up with your head and hope that can be taken care of as comfortably as possible. Thanks for sharing!

"More Recent Happenings"
This job fair was very well-written rich in Theme as well as Imagery.
Red well flowed well I know it's no grammar issues.
Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks,

Thanks for the prayers, Bro first cab off the rank I loved the Glenelg tram and the Horse tram at Victor Harbour.

Although they?re bringing back trams in the city Geoff

In Adelaide? Excellent idea! Should invite you to the Trams Downunder group on Face book. A young Indian fella is helping me with my tram videos. I am looking to buy a new Digital Camera. I don't have a pause button on my phone or my Canon Camera and I want software to merge movies and stuff.

Sounds good Geoff
