Wednesday morning my daughter, her husband, my wife, me, and my oldest grandson Mason leave for Colorado. Mason won't be returning with us. Western Colorado U's classes start soon, football on Monday.

Mason has never been a way from home. Mason is my fellow adventurer... always ready to go off with Papa on any adventure... panning for gold, fishing, hunting, you name it.

You say "feeling empty"... yeah, but I don't think that begins to describe it. - JamesJM
