Holding Her Hand

Family


The family is gathered in Fort Worth at Karen’s Mother’s bedside. Dad and all six siblings are taking turns holding her hand and talking with her. It’s a beautiful way to deal with a difficult time. She raised us with an incredible set of values and together we are doing our best to ease her transition with excellent support from hospice. It was an emotional moment when we all sang the family’s favorite lullaby to her this afternoon. When asked to quickly think of a favorite memory, the one that popped into my, Karen’s, head was of a time when I was two years old walking hand in hand with Mother through a garden gate.

Underground at Charing Cross

Underground at Charing Cross

Our last day in London this trip we ventured underground on the Hidden London Charing Cross: Access All Areas Tour for a peek into the workings of The Underground a bit of its history and the uses of the Jubilee Line Charing Cross Station that no longer serves passengers but still has usefulness including as a filming location for movies including Skyfall and Paddington.

Simply Stonehenge 

Simply Stonehenge 

A half-day bus tour from London to Stonehenge gave us enough of an opportunity to gaze in awe at this ancient sacred monument, learn a little more about its history and construction and make us want to return for perhaps a more intimate experience.
