The Road Home


April 28, 2012

Ryan and Amanda fixed a farewell breakfast for Steven and I. Ed joined us. Finished packing and cleaning, did one last quick hike behind the quad with Amanda and John, and said my goodbyes to everyone. It was really hard; these friends feel like family. I then spent some time driving through the park one last time, since it is so hard to say goodbye, even knowing I'll be back in a couple months for a few days' stay. Did a quick hike at Doors, then kept driving through the park towards Wall. Storm clouds started moving in, and the rain started as I reached the prairie area. Made a stop for rainy photos at Yellow Mounds before continuing on towards home.

I will continue to maintain this blog with updates on paintings and travels, though not on a daily basis.
