Now how do I pick a town. My favorite, length of stay, best memories.
It is so hard to tell. Each place made an impression. Each place was important in shaping the person I am today. It is all such a jumble.
I realized on these last few years that while I have lived in Seattle for almost half my life this is not my home town. I claim it, I love it, I have been as happy as anyone could be but I don't think it is the last stop on my journey. I am always looking for the next place. Some think that is weird but then look at all the places I have missed in my life journey.
and we are here on this strange place called Cancer World.
Until we are off of Cancer World we will stay put. I will water my trees and grow Grampa's beans. I will re-purpose my life and will continue to think about what it next. I guess this picture says it the best.
