Be grateful for luck. Pay the thunder no mind — listen to the birds. And don’t hate nobody.

The trip has not gone as planned. Life is like that.
My mother is in hospital and could use some energy, thoughts, prayers, or whatever it is the FSM sends out to make things better.
The good news in this is that the secret trip took us to within an hour of where my parents live. I got the phone call about Mom an hour or so into our drive east, back to the scene where we spent M’s sabbatical. The plan was to spend the weekend together, just the two of us, without informing family and friends that we were back in the area so we’d have time to do all that we wanted to do.
Timing. It’s funny that way.
