    Losing my child (even though she's not a baby) would be devastating. I tear up just thinking about it.

    On a brighter note, your Mariposa looks fantastic!

    Yes, me too. You just want to always keep them safe. My 25 year old "baby" is being deployed for the 2nd time to the Middle East in February. I hate hate hate those tours.

    Tombstones were so much fancier back then.
    When I die I want to be cremated then have my urn strapped to someones package rack and scattered along the towpath as they ride.

    About a year ago when I went to my uncle's funeral down near El Dorado, AR, I saw this marker that really struck my heart as an inveterate collector of old bird dogs:



    Now that's the kind of marker I'd like when I take up residence on the wrong side of the grass...
