Old friends are so dear! On Wednesday a friend of over 35 years will be in town from across the continent. I'll take the day off work and we'll roar around the south Island so that I can show her all my favourite stops. We'll talk continuously and stock up memories until the next time we meet.Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-1628004419982292682012-03-02T11:52:55.599-08:002012-03-02T11:52:55.599-08:00Cute, cute blog!

As I've gotten older, I've become more aware of how tenuous this earthly life is, and I'm trying very hard to do better at keeping in touch with family and friends on a regular basis, instead of just that yearly Christmas card. We never know when our time here is up, and I'd hate to think I wasted a minute of it procrastinating making that call or arranging a visit. Good for Dave - it's difficult to realize your old friend will soon be moving on, but how joyous that reunion will be one day!karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16313237142656662148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-75613855646947398262012-03-01T16:58:35.806-08:002012-03-01T16:58:35.806-08:00Great music Sue!

When you...I love listening to Simon and Garfunkle. When you said that Dave had lost an old friend I started to cry. I'm wondering if this is the Doctor that Karin works for. I am so sad for Dave. I know what it is to lose an old friend. My very best friend was the first to go, and since then I have known of a few that are gone. Unfortunately, I have not found a lot of the friends I grew up with. Leaving Idaho for California when I was 16 really messed me up when it comes to keeping old friends or making new ones. The little town of Richmond was where they built a lot of ships during the war and that poor town grew from 20,000 to 200,000 overnight. It was not an easy place to make friends.Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797132860053426517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-68072270714097053362012-03-01T14:42:58.900-08:002012-03-01T14:42:58.900-08:00Best to you and your husband!
