"The folks are gone and the dog died," we can only go forward...now I follow my own footsteps in the sand of the desert, make note of the colors, sing to myself the song of the gulls, as I remember it. annell4https://www.blogger.com/profile/07629830133868270690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074509503476824621.post-67721649786752851012016-03-24T12:45:29.867-04:002016-03-24T12:45:29.867-04:00There is a great warmth in this - both for locatio...There is a great warmth in this - both for location and more importantly family..i love the image of your son being wrapped up and the warm breakfast that followed - the best things in lifeJae Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11509244123008832611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3074509503476824621.post-18768514628775571082016-03-24T12:13:13.322-04:002016-03-24T12:13:13.322-04:00Lovely :D I agree with Sherry, you made us feel li...Lovely :D I agree with Sherry, you made us feel like we were right there with you.

You have the atmosphere swirling against my skin and the histories playing inside, secure in the knowledge of strong presence of family despite the fragility of the moving land. Fascinating! <br /><br />Margaret, please relink as the first brought me back to PU.
