"...Because of our wisdom, we will travel
far for love..." - Hafiz
Over the years, David and I traveled on many a steam train, from the North Yorkshire Moors to the South Devon coast. We loved the spirit of adventure and romance of these vintage trains.
Today is David's birthday. And while he's not here to celebrate, remembering our many journeys together - by train, plane, boat, bus, car, bicycle and on foot - makes me smile.
How lucky we were to celebrate so many birthdays together!
It is always good to see your posts, Tara.
Visiting the English countryside by train is on my bucket list. There is a bit of mysticism involved with trains. What fun the original Orient Express may have been! Perhaps someday you will share more David stories with us.
Think of you so often. I truly hope you are finding peace.
Best,
Mary H.

Oh Tara, what a joy to have the special memories. And what a beautiful and adventurous thing to remember. I've never been on a steam train, I don't think. To journey through the beautiful English countryside with someone you love would be simply unforgettable.
You have been recently in our thoughts. Rick and I too will share our memories of David today. Our "library" is not nearly so large as yours but the memories are indeed very sweet.
Sending hugs.
