Bend is a nice area, went through there a lot when I was long haul trucking. <BR/><BR/>My father and sisters died young, I'm about all that is left of the family unless my asshole brother is still alive, and I don't want to know if he is or not. <BR/><BR/>My mother lasted a long time but died a few years ago. But we wasn't close, she was a chain smoking pain in the butt drunk. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, peaceful paths.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206236315038007377.post-85511641356335083342009-03-31T11:19:00.000-07:002009-03-31T11:19:00.000-07:00We were the lucky ones.

Where they all had to share her time, I had her to myself for the last five. Except when they were home for visits.<BR/>I adored my older sibs and always loved having them home. But those were special years for me that I had with her. (The reason I thought I was her favorite. Smile.) Really, I always knew she didn't have favorites, or that we all were.Linda McGearyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03018571975106229102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206236315038007377.post-7076922343843335432009-03-31T10:18:00.000-07:002009-03-31T10:18:00.000-07:00Remebering with fondness is the best tribute one c...Remebering with fondness is the best tribute one can pay.
