My trip went really great. San Francisco was beautiful, Lake Tahoe was breath taking!!! And to all my American friends on here, it was so nice to visit your beautiful country, and your countrymen were so friendly, nice, and helpful It really was the best time I've had in years.

I ended up eating a lot of gluten tho, and when I got home I paid the price. My knees swelled four times their size, and I was not very mobile for almost 2 weeks due to the severe bone and muscle pain. The most interesting part tho, however not fun, is that I went from being extremely stable to a complete emotional mess. The stability returned quickly as the pain and swelling also left. So I guess I have an answer now, that yup eating gluten for me is bad for my mental health.

Here's a couple pics...

Doing yoga in soft sand is a lot harder than it looks, but black sand....that's crazy, and sooo cool !



This is one of my favorites because it shows how amazing the lake is, I really didn't ever want to leave.

I've missed you guys lots, when I got home I had so much stuff to do, and just trying to get well again. I hope you are all doing okay?

I better do some catch up reading here, but want you to know I think of you's all the time!!
