I'm not sure where the crossing over comes but it does and each time I travel I look forward to seeing the other side again.

By the way, the heat on the East Coast is much worse than what we have here because of the high humidity there.SquirrelQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00634513897599275287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-54630370624262543522010-08-31T00:58:44.691-07:002010-08-31T00:58:44.691-07:00Hello D-Jan, glad your back,that's a lovely pi...Hello D-Jan, glad your back,that's a lovely picture of you & your sister,family ties are strong here and that's wonderful.<br /><br />Smart guy is a wonderful husband to you,a keeper for sure!<br /><br />I will be blogging again soon.Enjoy your day.Historical sites with charminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18184298911832518611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-68662918459876339432010-08-31T00:54:03.226-07:002010-08-31T00:54:03.226-07:00You and your sister look very much alike...you are...You and your sister look very much alike...you are so blessed as you have enjoyed the best of both worlds and have known love in both places.<br />.......:-) HugsBerniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03024565921761129108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-38641582243691919532010-08-30T20:59:28.686-07:002010-08-30T20:59:28.686-07:00What a great picture of the two of you!

Thank goodness for family.<br /><br />I understand what you mean about slipping into the same role. It's a feeling like coming home. Perhaps it's just that it's comfortable to be around those people who have known you inside out forever. I do the same with my family.<br /><br />You are definitely fortunate. It's important to step back sometimes to reassess and remember just how wonderful are the people in your life. I have found that it's all too easy to take my husband for granted as well. <br /><br />I'm glad you had such a good trip, and I'm glad you're safely home. I'm sure you'll enjoy the quiet and visiting with your birds.Whitney Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07766231420593480962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-6839630867765417772010-08-30T19:49:53.130-07:002010-08-30T19:49:53.130-07:00Welcomeback!

And how nice to get to come home to the smart guy. I bet you're ready for another adventure...and I look forward to you sharing with us. <br />I saw your comment at Quoteflections today and it was interesting that intended jumping through clouds was illegal. I mentioned this to my son and he said, "Duh mom...there might be a small airplane in the cloud, it could be dangerous." Is this why jumping through clouds is illegal?
