Before these years of ocean there were three years of deserts. In tents.

And the year before that there was the hospital.

And the years before that were in Orange County, enjoying traditional Thanksgiving as it should be.

In some ways, I’m looking forward to the holiday this year, very much so. Nervous but happy excitement.
In other ways, it’s just so easy to sink into melancholic longing for the days that simply cannot be anymore.

Perhaps I shall go for a drive and sink into the desert or the central coast.
Or perhaps I will let myself be joyful with those who I love.
