The Salad Days...

A bit of a pause here and some reflections on crossing the border this time. Hmmm...a deep breath. This time something magical will happen after we cross that line between the USofA and Canada -- we will become legal residents of another country. A country freely chosen because of what it represents, on a very personal level to us. It has been a long road getting here, both literally and figuratively. It was a choice not made lightly. It was a choice made because there was/is a desire for a different way. The funny thing is that the differences between the US and CA are not so obvious but seem very, very subtle. I don't want to sound like a hopeless romantic, in love and not able to see any of the flaws in the object of my affections, but in some ways I am, and you know what...I am going to just enjoy this time in the relationship. As we all know from past experiences, these days don't last forever but the now is just so sweet. Marching through the wilderness.....
