April 23, 2012. Canyon Lake, Texas. The Last Supper.

Once again, we will celebrate and say goodbye.  It is a mixed blessing.  On the one hand, looking forward to a new experience and place is always enticing and exciting.  On the other hand, we leave behind people and places we love, which makes me sad.   In my mind, the future always wins out, so we give thanks for our time in Texas but cheerfully look forward to our journey to Mississippi.

Tonight, after the lacrosse game, Dave and Irene will take us out to dinner at Maggiano's.  David and Suzanne and the four girls plus the four of us will make for a festive event.  We will celebrate our visit and remember the past.   And tomorrow,  we four will get into our Escape and drive to Mississippi, which is a drive of about ten hours.  We expect to arrive on Thursday, visiting along the road and driving on secondary roads,  stopping for a walk every two hours.  I am looking forward to the journey but feel badly saying goodbye.
