On to Another Adventure
Well, I have recovered from my post Europe Depression. I
only call it depression for lack of a better word. It really just took me some
time to adjust to the idea that our trip truly was over. We were thrust rather
quickly into the real world with everyday life waiting on our doorstep.
I have neglected writing because, really, what remarkable
things do I have to say that could compare with the majesty of Rome and the
serenity of Venice?
However my dad mentioned to me that he was wondering why I
had not written anything for weeks. He said, “it is still your jolly little
life you know.” What a good point. So it is. I may have had the most amazing
trip in the world with Cory, but it is still those everyday moments that make
me feel I am the happiest, most blessed girl in the world.
And so I am already on my next adventure; three girls and
five children caravanning up to Lake Tahoe to visit our hard working husbands.
An eight and a half hour journey turned into fifteen hours. No matter, we were
still rather jolly. Between the crying and the stopping we still had moments of
good conversation and laughter.
Though it may have seemed like a rough start, we are each of
us settled in our perspective tents or trailers very contentedly.
Our husbands leave bright and early in the morning and get
home well after dark. So the days are spent in exploring the small town and the
beauty that surrounds us.
