Whirlwind Weekend

Monday, November 17th, 2008

54 hours of weekend; 1500 miles/24 hours of driving; 15 stops along the way; only 14 hours of visiting;

Saying goodbye to your childhood home….PRICELESS!

My parents bought their home in Crown Point, IN 40 years ago and they close on its sale today, Nov 17, 2008. Paul drove me home this weekend (that’s right–he drove every mile of the trip) to see it one last time. We went on a 5 mile run past my old high school, my junior high, my elementary school, the new high school in town, the park where we played pick up and I worked for my summer job, my track coach’s house, my jr high bball coach’s house, the fairgrounds and more!

It was kind of sad, but I truly believe home is where your loved ones are.
