Love--Live

This photo was taken on the way back to MN for my mother's funeral.
Many, many things went wrong trying to leave California. Finally, after spending almost two hours stuck on a New Mexico highway (bad accident way ahead of us) we realized we would not make back to the funeral in time.
We pulled off at the first place we could, to discuss our options. Painted on a wall in that dusty empty no place was, 'A great soul never dies. They just bring us together again."
"Love--Live"
Turning around, we drove eight hours back to the Grand Canyon. We spent the next day just being together inside the amazing beauty of the canyon. When we got back home, we held our own memorial service.
