What a crazy bucket list trip. We went through the coast, viewed either near or far all of the lighthouses but somehow I feel so empty. Some how I feel incomplete.
Dean was happy to get back home, but it was not an immediate recovery. Just being home wasn't enough. It took weeks to see any sign of improvement.
The kids were well aware of my disappointment in not being able to spend more time. They were equally aware that Dean had given it his all to let me experience some of the locations I longed to go.
We were quite a pair. Me having looked forward to being able to leave, to travel, to enjoy my surrounds for well over 10 years.
He spent at least that same amount of time, looking forward to retiring and being able to putter around the yard and do the things he wanted to do there.
We had not planned for this great divide we found ourselves in.
