One last sunset....

The sun is setting on my final eve of this amazing summer adventure, I take a deep breath, and as I exhale I let go of all my worries and know that it's been another wonderful day in Bop's company.  I started this journey not knowing where I was going or who I would meet. I can honestly say, I have been to more places in 41 days than some people have or will in a lifetime. I have traveled 4,551 miles this summer, and left the country 5 times. I have met people twice and three times my age, as well as a few little ones. I have grown for the better! The sunsets will remain here, Bop will be in Charlotte in a week and then return to Florida, and tomorrow I will go back to life in York, South Carolina.  Although we're never really sure of how our days will go, I am CERTAIN that everyday should be filled with laughter, cocktail hour, and gratefulness for another day of life! 
I used to be a pretty rigid planner, and one of the most important lessons I've learned from Bop this summer is how to be spontaneous, go with the flow, let go of my fear of the unknown, and trust that I am right where I am supposed to be!
I am forever grateful to Bop for planning and executing such an amazing road trip! I am also forever grateful to Kevin, my hubby who let me take the summer completely off to just enjoy life ( even if it meant being away from him for  4 out of 6 weeks)!
I am one lucky, very lucky girl!!!!!!
