Sending Him Off...

Posing in the garden....

It has been a whirlwind of school start-up and 'this-needs-to-be-done-before-you-go'.

Months' worth of garbage tags have been purchased; the air filters changed; the lawn mowed; the barbecue put away; and the jeans and t-shirt I'd set aside to wear to work on dress-down Friday retrieved from his suitcase after ten frantic minutes of searching.

He cooked us breakfast: perfect bacon and eggs and sausage. The girls surprised him with a present: a Dragon Lance book called The Anvil of Time and a Subway card. He was hoping to be on the road by 9:00...but it was 10:00 when the wheels of his Corolla rolled out of the driveway.


...one last hug....
