We have alot in common. I too had knee surgery in June of 2010 (just a torn meniscus) --but I too am concerned about falling...<br /><br />Love your El Malpais photos/posts... We went out west for the first time in June --and want to go back. There's so much to see out there... We also hope to go to Alaska sometime.. In September, we are taking a 2-week trip to the New England area to see the Fall colors, covered bridges and light houses!!!!! Should be fun!<br /><br />We just got home from a short trip to the Asheville area. We have season's tickets to Biltmore --and love to go there every month or two --to see the changes. We also drove the Blue Ridge Parkway --and went up to Mt. Mitchell (where it was a wonderful 64 degrees)...This was my birthday trip!!!!<br /><br />So glad you are home --and I can't wait to see more from Alaska... We need to meet sometime... I signed up to follow you so that I wouldn't miss any of your great blog posts.<br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.com
