I am not sure if anyone reads this anymore but I thought I would let anyone who does come across this that my mom passed away yesterday August 17, 2019. I hoped this day would never happen. I loved my mom sooo much and I hope that when I retire I keep the tradition of traveling the US as she did and her mom before. Emma, her dog, came to live with my wife and me two years ago. Emma is still around and full of energy. In the summer of 2018, the traveling bug bit my mom and she traveled in a small rig from southern California up to visit me and my brother in MN and my sister in Indiana. This past winter she sold the rig and bought a car. She was finally done with traveling. Early tomorrow morning I fly to go to where she lived in southern California to tie up loose ends. I may make another post or 2 when I have more to say or maybe, one day, I will use this as my blog when I travel. My wife and I are going to drive her car back to MN at the end of the week and plan on visiting Zion National Park. We wanted to stop at a place she has been as we travel back home. My brother, sister and I hope to take her ashes to one of the parks she volunteered at next year and throw them in the wind. That is what she wanted. I remember when I showed her how she could do a blog and we got so excited every time we saw a new subscriber. I know she had the pleasure to meet a few of you and that really made her day. Thank you all for following her blog through the years. I know she liked to finish a post with the butt of some animal and say "The End", butt, pun intended, I thought this would be a better one. I love you mom!
