Going Back Home

When we were driving along this road....Tears came to my eyes  since all I could think of was the last time I on this road.  

I was remembering that in July I was following Dads hearse in a funeral procession.... and my son was driving my car in his dress blues Marine uniform (and now he is in Afghanistan)....

these sad days come along......but it was a beautiful day to ride to the mountains with my hubs!  And I got to spend Sunday with my daughter also!!

    Heartfelt hugs - and happiness that there was some brightness to the day as well.

    So your return trip was just yesterday? Such a very sad scene, but I am glad you were able to go back. How long ago was it?

    I completely understand the feeling you had in your heart. I've been down that road figuratively and have a similar road that I've been down literally.

    I understand the feeling that you had in your heart. I have been down that road figuratively myself and have a literal road that still takes me to the place where you were.

    (This might post twice. I'm having trouble commenting.)

    So sweet. Amazing how grief comes in waves. Sometimes at first you think you are past some feelings. Then it hits you. Thinking of you.Mary

    Funny how being in a place can evoke such sad memories. One day you will drive the same road and think happy thoughts... right now it is all to fresh in your mind.
