Cold in the Warmth of Winter

The 55th Reunion has come and gone, and the winter of 2022-3 proved to be an exceptionally warm one, with early bulb flowers and grass greening already although my cherry tree is running really late. Other than that,  Nature is going wild. We humans however, are just growing older. We continue our journeys making note of those of us whose journeys got cut short this winter. We lost:

Martha Berry Moore in March of this year; Carolyn Holmes, in January of this year, Terry Hurt and Barb Walsh in December of '22. Some of us are seriously ailing and we send our best to them for recovery. For those of us still hale and healthy, a heartfelt thanks to our lucky stars.

Last year we sold our RV thinking that between the work involved in maintaining it and Linda's assessment of my driving that it was time to stop pounding the roads. Last month, we both decided that we missed it, so we got a small travel trailer for shorter trips here and there every now and again. At least we can if we decide to. The same is true for getting together. 

It makes me wonder if we should not think of getting together more frequently but for the effort. Perhaps if we keep it real simple........Let us know what you think!

Oh, Linda asked me to remind you that if you have moved or changed email (especially important with the increase in postage), please let us know
