GREAT STRIDES Report

Thursday and Friday in Salt Lake were cold and rainy, but the sun came out Saturday morning for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's Great Strides walk. It touched me to see families with little children who suffer from CF walking together. We were excited to be a part of it. If you'd like to donate to our effort, it's not too late. You can donate to our SING ME TO SLEEP team through the end of June. Check out the pictures. It was such a nice day.

Next week (after I get home from my son's wedding!!!), I'm participating in an event sponsored by Writers Unite to Fight Cancer. I'm honored to be a part of it. It's June 2nd in Gilbert, AZ at the A+ Bookfairs Warehouse. I'll post more details next week. I'm getting on a plane again in the morning, but I wanted to mention this for those of you in the Phoenix area.

Listening to a lovely welcome with the crowd of eager walkers 

Sunshine and blue skies. No rain!

There were signs like this about CF all along with 3 mile route through downtown Salt Lake.
