We carried him there about 18 months ago, the Air Force put on a pretty good show. It is a pretty site.<br /><br />I was born not too far from there, on the north bound shoulder of Rte. 84 on the way to Espanola. My parents were trying to get back to the Jicarilla reservation where my Mothers family is from. They were 80 miles short.<br /><br />BT: Jimmy T sends.JimmyThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00595473108896212170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-74865925017942861612012-09-10T09:41:47.910-04:002012-09-10T09:41:47.910-04:00I read what you said about your estrangement from ...I read what you said about your estrangement from your folks for a period of time, and felt the stab of pain at the lost years. <br /><br />I only left the fold of my parents love for a few weeks. The reasons now, lost in time, but it was prideful foolishness on my part. It hurt them so much, how could I have been so cruel to those good people? I stole their beloved child. Me. <br /><br />When I returned to them, their arms were open to me, as they always were and always would be.<br /><br />Just another lesson taught to me by the greatest teachers I ever knew...<br /><br />"Value those you love and those who love you, you never know how much time you will have". Or in the words of James Taylor: "Shower the people you love with love".<br /><br />Sounds like your parents were good teachers too, Borepatch. Pass it on...<br /><br />Cap'n JanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-49558060697222614612012-09-09T23:22:59.779-04:002012-09-09T23:22:59.779-04:00I must have something in my eye.....I must have something in my eye.....drjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-46526428394589259472012-09-09T21:44:58.460-04:002012-09-09T21:44:58.460-04:00:salute::salute:RabidAlienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07035887632706442114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-67352656140810674982012-09-09T21:41:50.673-04:002012-09-09T21:41:50.673-04:00May he rest in the honorable peace he has earned. ...May he rest in the honorable peace he has earned.
