  • “The journey not the arrival matters.” – T. S. Eliot

    Anna and I have been on the road again

    Our Uncle Clayton passed away last Thursday

    He was Mom's only brother

    We loaded up and left Sunday morning

    Atlanta to Arlington on Veterans Day

     

    His Memorial Service was Monday

    we spent the night with our cousins in Krum

    and headed out Tuesday morning for Wheeler

     

    I always feel like I'm home when I see the water tower

    and roads that go on forever

    back on the road Wednesday morning

    Wheeler to Atlanta in 15 hours was a record for me

    if you need a good fast driver you should hire Anna

     

    Nash saved the sunshine in his ears for when I got home

    and they brought in my marigolds 

    they were both a sight for sore eyes

     

    but now I'm behind at work

    and at home

    Have a great Thanksgiving Week
