In remembrance of Nancy ...

One might think, that I have forgotten?

This is far from being True! As I remember each and every year that goes by, that I ones was married to a wonderful Lady. Anyone that had the pleasure calling such a "Lady" your "Wife", knows exactly what I'm talking about.

Let's go back a couple of days and we will come to Nancy's Birthday as well. I had chosen that day to go and visit her Gravesite. I felt more comfortable for some reason unknown to me? Maybe I do know? I did not want to be there on the date she passed away. This brings me to realize, it's been "Five" years already that have passed. I know time flies, but not like this! I of course picture what it would be like, was she still here?

One thing is certain, I would not have gone to China and find a equally wonderful Person in Qing. Life is strange for sure, when we look back that is and sum it all in as a whole. It definitely makes me believe, ones Path through Life is all set and planned by .. none other than "God" himself.

I can honestly say, if I was to pass away today .. I would do it with a smile. My Life to this point has been every bit rewarding and blessed. I also know who to thank the most, but I do have many wonderful People ( Family/Friends alike) to also give my Due's.

I didn't intent to make sad Post's here, as this is a Blog of "Happiness" and so it should stay to the finish. You might ask how I feel right now, writing this? I tell you, I feel happy and have not a sad bone in my body anymore. I have Candles burning in the room I'm writing in and a view of a Picture 14X21 of Nancy right next to me. Second, I have her "Rose" from the Casket .. that I will "Kiss" whenever I think of her. In other words, she is very much still here with "Me"!

I apologize to my Readers !

Yes .. I want to apologize for the next few months, my Blog will be not as active as before . The reason for this is simple . At the beginning of the new year , I decided to continue with my Book . This of course will take away much time/effort away from here .

I will however , if there is something exciting to report .. I still will do so . So all I ask of those who do read my Blog on a regular bases , have a little Patience with me .

Thank you beforehand !

Another year of hopefully int...

Looking forward for another interesting and of course a likewise great time together with my beautiful LaoPo .

Last year was a wonderful / pleasant year for both of us , with our Sister in-law from Shanghai visiting us for two weeks . This being my first Post of 2012 , I like to start out with the first opportunity that we had ( because of her work ) to go out and load up our Bicycle's and head to the San Fernando Valley . To be more precise , Balboa Park & Balboa Lake . The latter , I have never been to as of now . Funny really , hence I've spend many Summer months playing Soccer on those Fields . A whole bunch of memories and tough battles with/against other ( especially European ) Teams . One I like to mention , was when the only time my Grandfather from Germany was visiting . That Sunday , I remember .. I've scored four Goals and could have made it five .. if I didn't miss a Penalty Kick/Shot . It did hit the Post and bounced to the outside of the Field , with no chance for a second try .

Anyway , we spend about three hours at the Park . First it was all around the Park and Golf course .. about ten (10) miles my guess . Then , around the Lake a little .. as most was only for walking not riding . Halfway around we sat down for some rest , after all .. it was only the second time using our new Bikes . By now Qing started to feel some pain in her leg's and was not able to walk around the entire Lake . 


Rested somewhat , back to the Car ( 1 mile ) for a trip home .. where Qing had to work a night-shift . I did feel sorry for her , but I think it wasn't enough to make her feel much better . On the other hand , I did not feel anything painful . I kind of knew from my Soccer days , it will show up the next day and it sure did . So I think Qing feels better now , that we also share the pain along with the pleasure . Like they say , no pain .. no gain ! Just trying to figure out , what did I gain ? haha
