About me

After finishing treatment for breast cancer, I received a 5-year survivorship plan. It included monthly, then quarterly test and doctor visits. Instead of worrying about whether or not the disease would return, I created my own recovery plan. My plan included traveling the work. My goal is to inspire others to follow their dreams and not wait for a devasting diagnosis.

I Am Still Here. Myles to Travel Updates It has been almost four months since I published my last post about going to see the fantastic play, “Southern Gothic” at the Windy City Playhouse...

It's that time of year again. The "A Christmas Story" Comes Home exhibit is back at the Indiana Welcome Center in Hammond Indiana. I finally got over to see it last year before they packed it up for the year. I took some pictures of the exhibit. I have a link in my Bio. This year's exhibit will be on display starting tomorrow November 10, 2018, until December 31, 2018. Don't wait until the last minute like I did. If you go early, you and the kids can see Santa.
I think fall is my favorite season. I went to a women's spiritual retreat this weekend in Frankfort, IL. I took this on the trails.
Tried a new restaurant in Munster Indiana with Dinner with @phyllis.polk13. @kitaro.munster The chicken lettuce wraps are my favorite.

I went hiking with @fatgirlshiking on Sunday at Illinois Beach State Park in Zion, IL. A chapter is coming to Chicago soon. @lividlipids took this nice picture of me.  No selfies this week. Well, I still took some. I hiked in full gear as I prepare for Kilimanjaro. I'm getting used to the back pack and poles. The area was flat, but I still need the practice.
I was only able to visit one location today as part of Open House Chicago. I had a previous engagement. The Baha’I House of Worship did not disappoint. This structure was opened in 1953 in Wilmette, IL. It's about an hour drive outside of Chicago. Normally you are not allowed to take pictures inside. I'll share more over the next couple of days. If you catch my stories you'll get a peak. #theusiscooltoo
