My mother called them "adventures" and they consisted of trains over rickety trellises, ferries running over reefs, boats in 12 foot seas and squalls, seaplanes that could barely lift off and houses with roofs you could watch the stars through. Unless you have lived through these "adventures" as you describe, one has no concept or true appreciation of the toll it takes on one's psyche and body. I appreciate your "adventure." And, as you said, I would not trade a moment of it, nor would my children. That's why they are who they are today and why you are now who you are. I'm very proud of you. What do you say we take a family vacation to the Virgin Islands to relax in turquoise seas? :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488880.post-7648203887097197642007-07-30T09:14:00.000+00:002007-07-30T09:14:00.000+00:00Yes, I agree... thanks Laurel for these 365 days o...Yes, I agree... thanks Laurel for these 365 days of adventures, pictures & histories, was very interesting.<BR/>I'll miss this Blog.<BR/><BR/>Take a long rest, you really deserve itAntoniohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114021557821300368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488880.post-33157309683674139962007-07-29T22:59:00.000+00:002007-07-29T22:59:00.000+00:00I want to echo the previous comment... that it has...I want to echo the previous comment... that it has been amazing to read your documentation of the journey.<BR/><BR/>I cannot even begin to comprehend how much you learned this year. Nor can I understand how nice it will be to unpack, sleep in a comfy bed you call your own, and be able to 'settle in.' That is... until your next adventure!<BR/><BR/>love ya.liylakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13167412462126929098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488880.post-17628363163764702922007-07-29T04:32:00.000+00:002007-07-29T04:32:00.000+00:00What a year!
