That’s the only way I can describe how I’m feeling right now. I had all but given up on seeing anything at all. I was beaten. Dejected. I planned for years. I saved – for years. I went over it and over it in my brain. But the weather wasn’t looking promising at all.

Cut to this morning. I woke up determined. I wasn’t about to let this go. I can’t have come all this way and not control what I can control. What’s the last part of the saying again? Ah yes, there is no TRY.

I’m doing this.

I did this.

So much more to come, but here’s a start.
