I am painfully aware it has been 16 years since this sweet boy was taken from our family and this mortal life. Thank heaven I have a friend back home still who consented to go visit him for me even though I wasn't able to. I need to go home and visit my brother. I need to go home and visit large driftwood land and drive all the way down fair view loop and go out to the butte. I need to go to the Jensen home and go snow machining out on their lake. I need to walk to Tanaina Elementary school and go down dead mans hill. I need to climb the rock with a tree growing out of it. I need to visit our fort. I need to throw something off the cliff. I need to see my house. Even though it isn't mine anymore. I need to go visit the empty train tracks. I need to visit that park and lake by the train tracks. I need to go to lake Lucille. I need to drive by Christopher's house. I need to go to memory lake and scream. I need to drive up Hatchers pass and putt off the top and maybe steal a kiss or two. I need to go to the V-Ho and eat food at a strange hour. I need white hot chocolate from mocha moose. I need to sit at Jens kitchen table and tell her about my day. I need to kidnap Julia and go on an adventure with her. I need to drive out to the end of KGB and sit and watch the planes take off and Anchorage in the distance. I need to take more pictures.
