Sorry Kathryn,

Post was not meant to bring back pain.  We can't all go back...for me, there is joy and sadness, but it is all strengthening, I assure you.   Even if I went back to a homesite that was now torn down, it would still get me thinking and remembering the good..and the bad.   Funny how you can remember textures (ie the boat).  I can recall the same, and smells.  Music always brings back the situation in which I first heard certain songs.

Again, sorry for a sleepless night.  I owe you for that one.   Maybe it's something you ate.   Next time, try some wine from Margaret River!!

Love and Peace,

Gene
