The Sad Part of Leaving New York

It's all about the people we love and leave--till we come together again in the City or Portland. Our "distance grandparenting" shifts coasts with our move. We've had many good times with Roxie and her parents in our last days in New York.

This photo is a favorite of mine from a delightful Sunday we enjoyed last winter in Dumbo, under the Brooklyn Bridge.

I know, Naomi, it is what I did last year. Wecreate all these beautiful golden cords that tether us to those we love!

Thinking of you, Marianne

Moving about in my early life became valued by me because of all the new people I met to add to my old friends. They've stood me in good stead all these years though so many are gone now. Treasure your memories ... enjoy making new ones.
