East

Hello. I've been away...I was back East this past week for some family time. This included a memorial service for my aunt, my father's sister, and a funeral for sweet Yvette, who helped my mother throughout our lives. It was good to be with family -- I do not see them often enough. While photos were mostly inappropriate, there were times when it was fine to capture the beauty...Thankfully, there was also time to visit the shore and sail...Each of these places is part of my history, and quite meaningful to me. I hadn't been to New York in almost ten years, and it was a whirlwind visit, but a lovely one thanks to family (especially my sister who hosted all of us). I'm glad to be home, but hope to go back before too much time passes to spend time with family again, and to show my husband and son these places where I grew up.
