So, I left Utah 2 years ago when my mother passed away. We had been together for the last 20 years after my father passed away and my second marriage ended. She was my best friend. After she went home, I left. There was nothing keeping me in that part of the country. I found myself in Astoria, Oregon. A place I had always wanted to see. I spent a year there getting to know the place and decided to try something different. I moved to a tiny town in Tennessee, and I have been here almost a year now. I live in a remote house in a very rural town population 7k. I have had a lot of time to reflect, find myself, if you will, and heal from the loss of my mother. She was 94. I am 57 so if her life is any indication of how long I will be around then I still have a long way home. So, before I get to check out what’s next, I am here to make people smile and help. We are all in this together and a smile goes a long way, especially when you got nothing else. :)
