I have been through that kind of denial many times. I think it is a good place to rest. It really is the feelings that will be a part of you.

This is a great humor blog you have yourself. Found you from the Bloggess, and I would like to exchange links with you. I have a humor blog myself as you can see. Let me know if this is possible.

I moved eighteen times before graduating from high school, so I know how moving goes. Each place had its moments, and I’m grateful for each one of them. You’ll find a road that suits you here in the land of corn, I’m sure . . .

Good “seeing” you again, after a very long blogging hiatus . . .

Yes,it’s true, leaving is sad…you’ve settled made friends absorbed the the mountains into your blood, but to where? Somewhere new and exciting, new frriends new scents and a new sense of belonging.

Lovely post…and so worthy of your POTD award from David, another gift from him to us.

Hi Jennifer,
Your post is beautiful…!! And it IS the POTD, but will remain in my memory for many more days. I totally identify with you.
” These mountains have been so much a part of the landscape of these last five years here, and of me. I will miss them, probably more than I’m willing to let myself know.” You are so right ! you will like many things at your new place, but these mountains will keep recurring in your mind’s vision: that is when you will experience pangs and pangs of sadness. It’s almost as beutiful as being her: this sadness. Sometimes I feel I dont want to get over some beautiful places coz there is so much of myself attached to it. I just want to hang on to it. Be in a state of denial as you put it. But hey, when one door closes another one opens up..!!! so cheer up. Anjoy your glory at POTD. Congratulations.
Cheers!!! to your new destination!

The best part about this sort of drive are the mental snap shots you will take, remember and romanticize later. The pictures that will always stay in the foreground 5 years form now verses the ones that will fade to the background. I love driving and getting lost. Oh the new adventures that await you. I’ve been living in South Bay California for over 20 years and still haven’t exhausted the roads of travel. Blessings on your new move, travels and memories.
