Nachos before 8:15 a.m.

Brain cancer is...

...starting the day off right.

Today, my dad greeted me with a huge smile on his face. I wished him a good morning and asked him if he was excited for his big trip tomorrow. 

 "Tomorrow?" he asked. "I'm excited for today! It's going to be a great day." With that, he disappeared into the kitchen. About five minutes later, he returned with an even bigger grin. He plopped down next to me at the table with a fresh plate of homemade nachos and a diet Mountain Dew. We both cracked up, then I snapped a picture of this champion with his breakfast. 

While crunching happily on nachos using one hand, he slid the plate toward me with the other. I hesitated for a moment, glancing at the clock. Nachos before 8:15 AM? I looked back to my pops, a man in pure nacho bliss. Shrugging, I dug in too. Delicious. No wonder my dad knew today was going to be a great day. 

Here's to a man whose contagious positivity creates happiness everywhere he goes.  

PS...What big trip? (Addendum by Andi)

You'll find out more about said trip tomorrow.  Here are two clues:

1.  A recently renewed passport.
 

10 years older, still a suspicious looking character

2.  One of our traveling buddies, Curt, named the adventure "Operation North by Northwest."


Stay tuned, Team D! (Please?)
