Something to Talk About


You would think that with all the years we have spent together, that Jill and I would have run out of things to talk about. That never happens. 
Today I relived the day 30 years ago that our son Cody was born. His big sister Rachael had been bringing us such happiness and we longed for another child to join her. In a miraculous turn of events, a teeny tiny little boy was born and we got a call from our attorney asking if we would like to adopt him. It was an easy choice. 

It was fun to remember the excitement and totally unexpected gift this boy was to our family. We would not be the same without him. Cody has a very loving heart and family means everything to him. He knows how to have fun and his laugh is the best. If he were along on this Camino he would probably be carrying my pack because he loves his mama and he's as strong as an ox. I know his sweet wife Breaelle and kids will be treating him right today. 
The miles are getting short. 

The gardens are still beautiful

The signs are occasionally confusing but we are not deterred. 

Two more days.
