Both my parents were only children. Therefore, no one for me to bite.

I think she is still the same kind of person, LOL. We don't see each other anymore, after she went down a really bad path. But hopefully she is onto a good path now.<br /><br />Can I use one comment for two posts, I am sooooo behind in blog reading. And I have neglected you lately my good friend. Love the idea of a rocky path, strewn with wild flowers, sigh.... that would be charming.<br /><br />Great shots.<br /><br />JenRURAL https://www.blogger.com/profile/11871803235521431504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-79487295935412327702010-02-10T18:48:50.459-06:002010-02-10T18:48:50.459-06:00I miss the visiting.

There's 8 of us but they're much older than me, and we live in about 6 different states.
