So the saying goes and sometimes I feel it is true. I do enjoy their successes and suffer through their pains. I haven't posted in a while because too much has been going on.
Eric returned from 7 weeks studying in Barcelona. I picked him up at O'Hare and got him to his apartment. It was wonderful to see him and hug him and hear about all his experiences. He wrote a blog for the study program IES: http://blogs.iesabroad.org/author/egrshmgmail-com/. He's a good writer. Study abroad is a great growing up experience and also let's young people understand the bigger picture. He was very happy to be home.
Then Tom and I traveled to Mt. Rainier to see Justin who is working there as a climbing ranger for the NP system. It's been a tough summer with the loss of Nick Hall, one of the climbing rangers there in an accident at the summit. Needed to hug my boy out there too. We spent 5 glorious days hiking, enjoying Justin and his important other, Claire P. and getting away from the Midwest heat. Watch for next post on our travels up and down the trails.
I am really proud of both my guys. They are wonderful young men.
