As much as NOT having an incredibly tall, usually grumpy teenager around the house should be refreshing, I find myself really missing Christopher. I was wandering around the house after dinner and stopped in front of a bookcase, looking at a shelf full of his collection of history books. I saw his two books by British historian Antony Beevor and recalled discussing them with him on a similar evening after dinner. I picked one up to read. Maybe it will keep my mind of his absence.
I received the flyer for the local MG car club’s “Tulip Rallye” in April. Chris & I have done this run every year since 2004. I’ll have to find a new navigator for this year’s event. 🙁
Above is Chris biding his time on a Tulip Rallye segment with minimal navigation somewhere on Whidbey Island a few years back.
