Beautiful descriptions. Be a traveler, not a tourist is the way a friend described our trip with her to Tuscany.

We saw David, but other memories overwhelm him.

Such a lovely idea — I will definitely hold on to the idea of DOPA!! As well as O’Donohue’s poem. This was the section that really struck me:

“When you travel, you find yourself

alone in a different way, more attentive now

to the self you bring along.” Just beautiful.

But Becky I must point out that “Birds” is actually a song written by Neil Young. I know this because it is on an album that was given to me by my 9th grade girlfriend. 😬

Oh, thank you for the correction, Tim! I’ve only heard DF’s cover, but it sounds very NY! Please tell your current girlfriend hi for me…love y’all!
