Well, I woke up at 2:30 am to gather myself before taking my daughter to the airport for her big Japan trip #1 for the summer. For the record, I did not cry. A miracle really, but maybe my nerves finally said, "you and I are ready."
As I drove home, I thought I would stop on the bridge over the Chattahoochee River to see if I could catch the sunrise. I have one shot of the river (with ducks or geese below) and then I saw that the sun was further to the east so I thought I would either go for some light trails as morning traffic came. I'm leaning out of my car window safely here (although I did dare to exit the car for the river shot). I caught two trucks with nice metal siding that reflected the sunrise! It was a bit of a thrill, and appropriate for the Month of Joy in June.
@taffy yes. The Japanese government invited her in May to apply for an all expense paid exchange trip. She got accepted! We saved for 1.5 years for the one she is on now.
@darylo This is really an honor for her, and so exciting -- life changing kind of event. I'm so pleased for her and you must be so proud! You'll miss her, but she must be quite a kid!
