But your mom! I would definitely liked to have met her. Wow. And I love the ambience of B&W films, something that’s missing in living color. <br /><br />Invite me to your cellar one day. That must be a trip. (It reminds me of Gillette’s Castle.)<br /><br />And I know what you mean, reaching for the phone to call an absent parent. So many questions, no more answers. I’m so sorry you’ve lost her… except you haven’t. She lives on and will continue as long as you’re here for her.<br /><br />And she’d be proud of your writeup.Leigh Lundinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921276795499571578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-32325223030117198202023-05-13T13:02:44.399-04:002023-05-13T13:02:44.399-04:00fun post, Bob!
