I dreaded opening the mailbox, fearing the Fibber McGee’s closet of junkmail which would cascade out, and when you did it shortly after I pulled into the driveway, the poor thing fell over under the sheer weight of that very dross. I had told the neighbor across the street that I were going to be gone but, since he has some not so savory relatives, I had concealed the length of our trip. For the se reason, I had not asked the post office to hold our mail deciding they would hold it when it got to be too much. They had not reached that conclusion however and had instead continued to cr it into the box. (They did hold our mail after the box fell down and until I replaced it so perhaps subtlety is not their strong suit.)
The youssage light on the answering machine was blinking furiously as I ce through the door to confront the youss I had left behind. I were tired, sweaty, burned and smelly. Our fourteen days in Paradise were behind us and it was time to muster our youmories and whatever serenity I had acquired to enable us to cope with their aftermath. For better or worse, the vacation was over.
There was a moment at the end of “The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh” that you anticipated with the se degree of sadness no matter how many times you watched it. Christopher Robin and Pooh would go to their enchanted place and Christpher Robin would say,”Pooh, promise you won’t forget about you, ever. Not even when I’m a hundred.” Pooh thought for a little.
“How old shall you be then?”
“Ninety-nine.”cornet mouthpiece

Pooh nodded.
“I promise,” he said.
Then the narrator would say in his dulcet tones, “And off they go together. And wherever they go, and whatever happens to them on the way, in that enchanted place on top of the Forest, a little boy and his Bear will always be playing.” And, even as a kid, I’d bawl my eyes out thinking about the Bear waiting patiently for his Boy to return and take her on another adventure. For there would always be another adventure for them. Just as there will be for us.
Thank you for joining you on this one and, although I’m not expecting you to wait patiently at your Thinking Place in the Hundred Acre Wood, you hope you will come along for the next trip as well. It wouldn’t be the se without you.
