This big baby took little ones along this weekend . . . so I'd have to be brave for a final visit.
I stood in the clearing and cried last time
but didn't this time:
I have had fun.
I have learned a bunch!
I had a good time with Himself.
I enjoyed nature.
I discovered things!
I made muscle.
I made good memories.
I built campfires.
I built a drogue.
I split a tree!
I stood naked in the privacy of the trees and showered.
I built a bed.
I persevered.
I did what had to be done.
I come from Pioneer Stock.
PS: I wish Himself was more interested in photos.
There would have been a bunch!

Ah, you are a good, hardy woman! You are a Renaissance Woman, as gramps was a Renaissance Man. Your accomplishments remind me how much you are like him. Brave, adventurous and curious!
I loved telling people about my wild and crazy folks . . .
Were the kids sad?
They were sad, a bit. Every once in awhile one would say "I really liked the trails" or something like that. Dad is talking about building a zip line at Too (details later) and a tree house, etc. so we'll make Too special too!
