The holidays are over...

…and we’re left with only memories of 2012.

-Jerry hiked the John Muir Trail.

-I visited and worked at Lott’s Creek School in Cordia, KY.

-the grandgirls continued with basketball / did very well in school.

- spring break with the grandkids at Natural Bridge State Park / a lot of hiking/ a lot of looking at rocks, arches, flowers, stars, streams, bugs /cooking together/sitting by the fire/ good times.

-saying goodbye to our good, faithful and loving dog of 13 years.  

-good times with family and friends.

-watching the lights from our Christmas ‘tree’ dance as they were reflected in my cup of tea.

-volunteering at our neighborhood school a couple of days a week / enjoying the kids tremendously.

-a weekend at Wood’s Hole Hostel in VA / a very interesting and enlightening experience.

-camping in the Shenandoah’s with long time friends.

-blessed with good health / joined a gym.

-reconnected with old friends.

And so at the end of 2012 I am extremely grateful to all our family and friends who shared the year with us and to all who crossed or walked the journey with me.

Onward to 2013….
