Treasure
Today in Ten Sleep, we celebrated a 90 year old matriarch's life. Her family and friends will miss her. Her presence will echo in Ten Sleep for years.
You think about her life and how it has changed over the past 90 years... NINETY!
A tip of the hat to you, M., may you rest in peace.
Thank you for everything you did for your family and friends and community and country... you were a treasure!

Wow. Thank goodness for 2009, eh?
Elders are our treasures. This blog was very touching.
I loved the pictures of the barn loft. I've been largely unsuccessful in getting a good picture of our loft.

Part of what I mourn when an elder passes, is that I haven't listened enough. They have experiences and wisdom to share with us, if we will listen.

Thanks again for putting a wonderful thought in my day.

Wonderful shots inside the barn! I can smell the wonderful aroma of the hay!
I second what Holly wrote. I wasn't close with my dad, and when he passed away, and we cleaned out his house, I saw all these old, old photos of his life before kids. I so wished I could have asked him about them, but it was too late
