Have fun and hang on to those memories

It sounds like you are having a blast. Good for you. I’m glad you got over the fear of travelling alone, I knew you could do it. Hang on to every precious moment you run into because later in life when you are having a bad day (like I am right now) you can reflect on those past experiences and realize how bless you were to see, hear and touch things from this trip. Then life doesn’t seem that bad anymore(Shit could hit the fan, people can crap all over you, and you could say WTF, and reflect). I’ve created mine (precious memories) ; now it’s your turn. Absorb and retain.

Don’t go up in flames ( like the IKEA curtains) when drinking

Be very careful when drinking, don’t let your guards down and keep your wits. The other night I got carried away with the tiki torches(placed them all over the yard - wind was blowing), fell asleep from a rum induced day and curtains caught a fire. Burned one side up on the screen house(no damage done, just the curtains that went up in 3seconds); Mom came to the rescue with the extinguisher. So, be careful when drinking - it messes with your judgement of things when done in excess. Peace.

Joy !!!!

I can’t express the joy I feel within knowing what my daughter is experiencing , I can only dream about. It just seemed like yesterday when I was strapping her in the car seat that sat behind the back wheel of my ten speed bike; her head bobbing around as she slepted on our ride around the block. Now, she’s all grown up seeing the world meeting new people. She’s done so much in 21 years few people do in a lifetime. Keep on learning, living & loving…….Hey! I think her parents did a pretty good job (thrid party reference)(pat on back).
