When I had my surgery 7 years ago I could not begin to climb the steps to reach the top of the ceremonial Temple Mound at Kolomoki Mounds Historical State Park. As a child I ran up and down the sides of this mound without batting an eye or my heart skipping a beat. My goal was to once again climb the 78 steps to reach the top and look across this beautiful park that I love so dearly. I chose today to make the trip up the steps because 2 of my dear friends, Karla and Loretta, came down from Tuscaloosa to visit with us. Bob and myself took them out to the park to share its wonders with them. All 4 of us ventured up those steps. For me, each step was a milestone. As I reached that last step I felt as if I had won an Olympic Gold Medal. I had made it. I was at the top.
