It's lovely, Dan! @bluemoon
Oh, how I understand the tears mingling with the rain. I love my life, but, I long for what used to be, where it used to be, and with who it used to be. I am so happy you put it on the map. That is a great idea and makes me want to do the same next time I go home.
Home is the best place in the world. I feel fortunate to grow up like I did, without the benefit of a lot of things, but, lots of love, friends, and fun. I agree, cleaner, better living. I actually was looking at houses in my town this week. :) I think I was getting nostalgic. When I go to my grandmother's house, when we got to a hill, we would all shout Grandma's house in 2 miles!
It is a beautiful place, Dan, made even more beautiful by the memories. I love the beauty you showed me and I especially love all the stunning flowers. The roses are perfection!
Thanks, Dan!! Have a great day!
