Convergence

.
.

I call May 2007 my month of convergence because a lot will be happening.

1. In one week will will fly to Tahiti to begin a 10 day luxury cruise in the South Pacific aboard the Tahitian Princess.

2. Burning House Festival X - celebrate the 10th anniversary of our house burning to the ground.

3. I will get scanned and evaluated for the next attack on my cancer at UCSF. This is not fun but it is what it is.

4. I will have completed teaching my course at Fresno State, given the final exam; I will miss this experience.

5. My brother Dave's birthday is coming up (May 22) - he will be eligible to join the AARP.

6. Carole will be holding a shower for Jen in Santa Barbara - Jen is due to deliver our fourth granddaughter (Sarah) in early June.

7. I will be officially retired as team physician for Fresno State. Having been associated with Fresno State has been a magnificent adventure - not only for the "I'm with band" experience but the incredibly wonderful friends I have met. Some of the best people on earth are in athletics. I am humbled to think I have been part of that journey. But it is time to move on and bring on the younger doc.

Expect a bunch of posts as the month rolls on.

Check it out: I recently submitted my DNA to National Geographic for analysis of the genetic journey my father took over the last 60 000 years. We all started our journey in East Africa and I ended up in Ireland. Click here to see the results.


BTW, if you need a travel agent, the best of the best is Jeri at Travel Express in Fresno!
