Just in case I never get here again:
I wanted to take a picture.
This is where my grandparents lived. I’ll say more later, when it’s not quite so raw. The thought of not going back is enough to make the tears well up a little.
Interested in prints of my photos? Let me know, and we can work something out.
Sorry for your loss, Pat. Although you did get to enjoy your grandparents for a good long time … mine all passed when I was still in my 20s and 30s.
I liked your time travel story. Liked the birthday bow metaphor especially. But what’s the secret? The fact that another later version of himself was watching himself watching him at the birthday party? I think that’s it. Hmmm.
I was thinking the secret was that he was a time traveller; it’s never explicitly stated that that’s what’s going on.
Hey Pat, thanks for sharing the picture with us all, even though it made me tear up too. We sure were lucky to have them with us for so long though.
