Bittersweet visits

09.19.2004

Caught a ride back to Saginaw w/ Sam to visit our parents Saturday afternoon & Sunday morning. I'm sure it meant a lot to them, and especially abuelita. But we focused on the being happy, even chit chat about everyday life. No sense dwelling on the obvious. Even spent a few moments around a backporch fire, laughing at childhood stories about my dad, as told by abuelita. He'll fly back to Santa Cruz w/ her, spend a few days visiting his brothers & helping w/ final arrangements.

At night, I drove into the city to visit Matt & April, kick back Miller Lite longnecks, talk about Matt's student teaching & 3-year-old Emet's latest adventures.
