I have friend who has family in Wales, they have wonderful stories of their visits. Daffodils and spring have good/sad memories for me as well. I lost my mother to breast cancer in April 1993 and remember cutting them for her that spring.

I read your profile....thank you to you and your son and your family....I pray that he is safe and doing well.

St. David's Day is March 1st. The garden with my daffodils is still under 3 feet of snow. We have another 6 inches coming in the next 24 hours. Walmart daffodils and some nice leeks for soup will have to suffice this year.

Sorry to hear that breast cancer took your mother. I was lucky to have a very wonderful mother-in-law. My wife and I were with her at the hospital every day until she passed.

Our last vacation was a trip to Wales in April 1999. The airline lost our luggage. We had rain, high winds and snow. Our suitcases arrived at 5:30 PM Tuesday...we left San Diego at 9:00 AM the prior Friday. The trip home was the following Friday. It was still a great vacation.

My son is in San Diego right now. There is a strong possibility of another "sun and sand" vacation with the USMC later this year.
