Parting shots

We gathered this morning to take photos before I left.

The last times we have visited we neglected to get photos of us… From the day I arrived, we said we needed to remember to get photos of us!

Us.

Bill and his Mother, Betty.

Mama, me and Dixie :)!

My folks, LB and Dixie, the gorgeous stone work around the main level woodstove and the beautiful paintings.

Parting shots.

A hard leaving. A going through the motions and heading down the road.

It was a clear, sunny day. The mountains were spectacular. The driving was easy. Snow around Del Norte and Monte Vista and frosted trees.

I ended early just south of Colorado Springs.

Bear and I slipped back into travel mode but I miss being with family. I miss the routine that felt so loving and warm and comfortable. I miss all of that as I enjoy the travel…as I look forward to each day on the road and as I look forward to being at my own home.

The moon tonight.
