This week was full of farewells.....thinking and contemplating what Vermont (and all its wonderful people) meant to me......it was a beautiful journey (1,100 miles) and I don't regret one day.......True, I missed my family at a lot of times.......the people, the road, and my roots......I ask, What is home to you?
 |
| Brock's fancy graduation invitation to me......:) |
 |
| We wanted to leave with something to give back....so we planted these cosmos (fitting) and some Clematis for the bike path. |
 |
| Us after the graduation....rainy evening. |
 |
| Everyday I passed this and overlooked its beauty.....looking closely it was made by the organization that Gary taught at...pretty neat.....This was taken the day before the kids left. |
 |
| Coach Shaun was such a mentor to the kids he worked with.....Here pictured is Cooper, Adam, and Coach with a Yankees backstop he handmade for Cooper......He was so nice to do this for him.......such a great guy. |
 |
| Love these around Vermont.....Allium or ornamental garlic...just don't know... |
 |
| This picture and the ones below mama sent to me by phone of the kids back at home....in Tennessee with them. |
 |
| Yes, she got a kitten too......oh my. |
 |
| So, this is what my wonderful E-Team and coworkers and students did for me (without me knowing). Without this experience, I would have never known what it was like to work with such great people.....people who were like-minded......They got a history of Springfield Book and presented it to me at Weathersfield Center Church for our staff farewell supper. This was written in the book as I opened it. :) |
 |
| The song they wrote and sung that evening......so sweet....I will never forget...... |
 |
| The empty (now) room I spent many a-days. |
 |
| kids on way to airport to Boston. |
 |
| Giles enjoying some strawberry cake Hillary and I made for Gary for Father's Day. |
 |
| Picked up Cooper's friends (before he left) and took Logan, Hunter, and Cooper bowling and for some ice cream....I'm glad we got to fit this in........:) Great kids. |
 |
| Lake Morey, Vermont |
 |
| My good friends (and co-workers) Vanessa, Kim, and me. |
