up, up and away

19 years ago

Tomorrow morning at 8:15 the magic carpet will carry me to Minneapolis and then to Spokane where I will drive 45 miles north to Chewelah my hometown. I will spend 21 days as close to heaven as I will ever be on this earth. A full brilliantly written report when I return. Sheila thank you so much for the gracious invitation to lunch. Perhaps next year when I will be there for the summer. My son said God would work this out. He did. Thanks to him and all of you especially a certain lady in Pennsylvania. I am going to miss all of you. Steve in Baltimore County.

And we will miss you, Steve. Please give us a LONG report when you get back to earth from "heaven." What a great trip you will have.
Safe journey!

We surely will miss you. Happy for you, though. You aren't a little excited, are you? LOL.

Steve, I hope this is trip all your heart wishes for - I know how much you have longed for this.

I'll still buy you lunch (or even make it) next year or whenever you get out my way.

Have a great time, Steve!
Breathe that wonderful air and refresh your body----hug a Madrone tree for me.
---And IF you should bump into Sheila, give her a great BIG hug from me!

I Googled some photos to see what you consider heaven on earth and I think I would have to agree with you. Not only is it gorgeous but such a "homey" comfortable looking town. I can see why you are chomping at the bit to get there. Have a wonderful time. Here's a photo looking down on your hometown.

Steve have a wonderful, special time as you relive your
past and store away memories for the future.

When you do have a chance to meet with Sheila, please
give her a hug from Neil and me. She is a special lady and
a really, really special friend.

Marda, thanks for the photo. I love seeing where other
folks live or places that are special to their hearts.

Marda, that pic looks so much like Monterey, Va., I did a double-take.---Even the road wends its way down from the mtns at the same angle.
It's eerie.
---Only difference is that Monterey has the caldera of an ancient volcano poking up through a cow pasture on the outskirts of the town.
One drives by it and notices the cow paths spiraling up.

Steve, your trip is fun for everyone!
