Departure and the usual melancholy

2-12-10

Finally! The loose ends and last minute details took most of the day, but we put Henderson in Ol Blue’s rearview mirror sometime after 3pm and started our drive south. As the road time passed I had my usual bout with Melancholy. What we leave behind tuggs hard. Us ‘experienced’ wanderer’s know this feeling will come. As you pull away from the world you know you sense all the gifts of place... especially difficult this day because of the wonderful gift my father & the business received with the Heart of Henderson Award. So, I call upon faith to part these waters. A wanderer knows to push ahead. Soon he will rise over the mountain that separates, and something new will dawn.
