"Farewell"


In the course of our lives we hit some bumps in the road. Sometimes these are small ones and sometimes they are big. We all find our ways of handling them, and no one way is best. It's how we choose to deal with them that is best. I would like to share my way of smoothing out one of lifes big bumps.

Jeanette and I visited a few of Connecticuts wonderful woodlands and streams. The forest is so full of life now, everything from flowers to deer to toads to chipmonks. While walking and listening the rushing waters as they crash over the boulders your mind becomes clear and free from the recycle bin which holds most everything.

As the day ended I still had the memory of this beautiful peaceful place.


Mountain Laurel as it blooms is here for but a short time. Our eyes take in its beauty and place it where it can be retrieved when needed.


Wild free flowing streams keep crashing over boulders and bumps as they have over thousands of years. There life is endless, unlike others. "Goodbye Bob"
