Hi Patrick, I am amazed at your new experience which is both an inner and outer journey at the same time. And, you are traveling to both past and present with full throttle to the future as well. Henry was so good for me and only barked on the first night. I watered some plants and spent some quality time with him before I left each night. Have safe travels in the days ahead and I won't be too far behind you as I prepare to travel to St. Louis until after the first of the year. I will stay in touch through email and your blog which was such a good idea.
