I'm starting to see that more & more with my mom on different things and it's hard.

I would love to take my dad on that road trip, so many things I want to do so little time.Sarah Huizengahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07326211901751159368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-76149520578587553832015-06-05T10:22:37.212-05:002015-06-05T10:22:37.212-05:00thank you for taking us along with you and your da...thank you for taking us along with you and your dad. even if the pictures aren't what you had hoped, they'll always be a special reminder of your day. i can only imagine how heartbreaking it must be to have a loved one struggling with alzheimers cathy. but how wonderful it must be for him to have such a loving daughter. xokellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05153095149911030832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-37570623585569134832015-06-05T08:18:16.970-05:002015-06-05T08:18:16.970-05:00I really loved this, so sweet and it tells such a ...I really loved this, so sweet and it tells such a story. I always love to hear your thoughts and your process. I have heard this so many times about forgetting to put the memory card back in a camera. I never upload from my memory card for that reason, I use the cord. My memory card never leaves my camera that way and I am ready, now I have had a battery die on me but that is another story.:) I am sorry you had that happen but I loved each and every one of your images here.

Our brains could be really tricky science is yet to understand its mystery fully.<br /><br />Thanks for taking us along this trip. If I ever get the chance to visit, I'll ask you for a list of the bathrooms. :)Lux G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00557863683608790087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33364332268534843.post-90978818335071905332015-06-04T23:47:34.974-05:002015-06-04T23:47:34.974-05:00I enjoyed going on this trip with you and your dad...I enjoyed going on this trip with you and your dad and it was so lovely to hear about your family history and how you share the same name as your great-grandmonther's second name, even though it isn't spelled quite the same!

The journey with Alzheimer's is so painful. Hugs. <br /><br />And the pictures - they don't have to be perfect! (You've inspired a blog post that is now swishing its way around my brain.
