Second day of Passover, Ruth and I walked under the huge full moon. Actually she biked slowly and I walked. It is so good to have time to be with her in the ordinary course of events. I miss the years Joanna worked for me and I saw her on a regular basis. She is so busy with her family, we talk, but I miss the dailiness, the incidental contact. It would be hard for me to live across country from adult children the way I lived from my parents. I've been reading the letters I wrote them during those years though and every detail is there, a rich commentary on our lives. Still, it's nice to brush up against each other without really trying, to just BE in each other's lives.

It is nice that you have the dailiness with Ruth and family and can do such things as walk under the moon together; and it is also nice that you have the letters that you wrote when you were living cross country from them, and I am sure, interesting for you to read them once more in the present. I doubt a lot of today's generation will have letters like this, when so much is done through email, texts, phones, etc. Kind of sad....but it is what it is; and with modernizations there are always tradeoffs.
