10,000 mark!

Happy labor day weekend!  This is our 50th post, and we just hit 10,000 views.  The most views received on a single post was 419, which was on dad's discharge from Mercy post back towards the end of June.....oh what a glorious day that was.  Its not about the numbers guys, my point is that this blog is flooded with supporters, people who care, who pray, who want to stay informed, which is exactly what we hoped it would be.  We feel so incredibly blessed to know that so many people are following dad and supporting him through this journey....it makes ALL the difference in the world to know that so many people are in his corner cheering him on, and loudly! Please know how much this means to all of us - Dad, Mom, Nicole and me.

Dad drove for the first time in nearly four months last night.... a testament to his physical capabilities and how far he has come.  This weekend mom and dad are enjoying that nice Pismo air and cooler weather.  Dad and his cuddle buddy Dexter are pictured below in their favorite lounge spot.

Here is a quote from dad:  "I just want to thank everybody for your thoughts and prayers. I appreciate everyone checking on me. Your prayers and concerns have been heartfelt, I will never ever forget it."
