Thanks Lance, I hope to make it in September. My mom told me about the other stop light! …Or it might be a round-about – which would be really nifty. Keep me posted on that (I might have to update my blog post!) Good to hear from you.

Makie,
SO AMAZING!!! This is so profound, i will quote you for the 2nd time now.
I write because I find it easier than speaking my thoughts. I paint when I can’t find the words. I sing because someone found the words and put them to music. I dance because the music moves me. I laugh because its better than tears. I cry when I feel alive. I am still so I can listen. I rise up so I can see.

Thanks Bri! Your little red horizon on the loose gravel roads was no match for the speed at which you drove, nor your determined shifting. I can envision you now in your greener than green plastic platform shoes working the clutch and the gas pedal!

I’ll take a virtual hug any day.

Love you big sis!

1. I remember being driven by you in your first little blue car – scary! But probably not as scary as me in the red Horizon tin can.

2. Love the gremlins – made me laugh and want to give you a hug and make you take a deep breath.

3. I love this paragraph, “I write because I find it easier than speaking my thoughts. I paint when I can’t find the words. I sing because someone found the words and put them to music. I dance because the music moves me. I laugh because its better than tears. I cry when I feel alive. I am still so I can listen. I rise up so I can see.” That needs to be immortalized on a wall somewhere for many people to read.
