I returned last Saturday from 16 days in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. I met up with my longest childhood friend and we celebrated our 60th birthdays together. We’re one month and two days apart. Then we met up with a friend I first met via this blog, and have visited with multiple times over the years. We hiked. We ate. We laughed, and I was so happy I got to be around still to enjoy these moments.
I have been going out west every ten years for the last thirty years. To celebrate and reaffirm life. They have also come east for me.
I’m very much a loner, but I am reminded when I visit with these amazing people, how important human relationships are, and how lucky I have been to have two such beautiful souls in my life all these years.

Happy Birthday! MANY more of them!!!
Relationships are so important. Your travels reminds me to head to Canada this summer to see relatives not seen in many years. Something to look forward to.
Hi Harvey! Welcome! How did you find my blog? It’s been so long since I’ve had a new visitor. Where in Canada are your relatives?
