For those who have accessed this blog and followed our hiking journeys, it is with the saddest of hearts that I report the death of my beloved husband and treasured life partner, occurring in June of this year. There are no adequate words to describe this monumental loss and I shall always miss him most dearly.
A Remembrance of Al
The gorge will know him
Sounds of his footsteps will be carried by wind sweeping across high ridges, and
remembered by cool breezes rippling through tops of swaying evergreens.
They will know his name as spirit who came amongst them, and they were one.
Awakening Calypso orchids will look for him along the trails in springtime, and
wildflowers, by all names, will call his.
I have begun hiking again and expect to continue the blog with photographs and commentaries on hiking.
