The Crew Dragon launch and ISS docking went off without a hitch. The capsule will stay docked until Friday morning, then return to Earth, splashing down off the Florida east coast. Exciting times for space enthusiasm.
Went 1-3 playing X-Wing on Sunday, then headed to Lexington to see Camille&Clayton. Always good to see them and with their impending move out of state, the visit was a little bit bittersweet. This was probably the last time I'll be in the house on Twain Ridge, and that knowledge led me to think about another way in which the world moves on.
Places - especially ones where people live - change. Dad finally sold Mamaw & Papaw's home last year. It's staying in the extended family, and that's a plus, but I never want to go there again. I saw the inside a few times when it was being rented; I didn't really want to, but there were things that required it. I want to remember it as it was, in 2008 and early 2009. When it was still Mamaw's, still the place I went to for advice or company or to mow the yard or take care of Mamaw when she needed it. That's how I want it to be forever, and if I never go back inside, then it will always be so.
