My little red tether is my anchor in running with my friends. A beautiful guide dog has been my tether/anchor in mobility and independence for 17 years: 1. Pantera 2. Cricket, and now my beautiful 3. Georgina (Georgie). A life of family and friends is my joy and anchor in life.

27 Years on a Pedestal

Twenty-seven years ago today, we were engaged. The story goes: I was picked up by one of Steve's best friends, Dr. Bart, who drove me around to all Steve and I's special hangouts in Logan and then he dropped me off at the Logan Temple where I was met by Steve. We then drove off into the sunset down to Salt Lake City. Steve put me up on a pedestal - third pillar of the state capitol pillars and asked me if I would marry him. Today during lunch hour, we returned to this place to reminsce and remember.

I am a lucky girl and feel very grateful that Steve feels like he is a lucky guy.
