I like 'see ya later' much better. Losing good neighbours leaves a hole hopefully to be replaced by new people who you can also enjoy.

Being emotional - about people and animals - is one of the things that sets us apart, though. Can you imagine existing with no highs and lows? No screech of the Chimp? No feeling of awe at the beauty of a hovering hummingbird? Wouldn't want that kind of life. <BR/><BR/>I'm grateful for your amazing photography, and believe you could not see and record those images if you didn't have the rich reservoir of emotion that also makes it hard to say "Later."Peg Sillowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11264210610044622009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35675426.post-53556637456921686662007-10-03T08:39:00.000-04:002007-10-03T08:39:00.000-04:00It's really sad losing a neighbor friend.
