Mogfest 2004
Hi everyone. Andrée here.
Seven years ago today E took off for that far shore, where in my mind's eye I see him blazing across shining country in a sky-blue Pinz, new friends bouncing out the windows howling with laughter like we all used to do.
Dear E -
Though it truly seems like just yesterday you went away, it's long enough now that your kids are as tall as I am, and Jemma goes away this weekend to be a junior at WSU. It's a new world for her too, starting her grownup life where the hills roll far golden to the eye, her own shining country. My auntie pride in her is about the only thing that makes missing you today bearable. As you fly across the hills over there, do you look out to the horizons and understand everything? I hope I will, too, someday. Save me a seat and a brew, brother.
Love, A
