John, the pictures - and the captions - mean so much to me. Honestly, it feels like the realest thing I can find on the web for Heath.
Kelly, thank you too for writing about your visit.
The Aero is the place I was physically close to Heath. Memory plays tricks, but I think maybe 12 feet away, max. For an hour. Of me trying not to make him uncomfortable - he seemed to totally notice when I was intently doing my best to absorb all I could with my eyes, so I would look away when he glanced over. Gave me a chance to absorb Rodrigo, Gustavo, Diana, Jake, Michelle a bit too. But it was Heath I had in my tractor beams. Banner Hill reminded me the other night that Heath's parking ticket was clearly visible through his shirt pocket. Aero. He and Michelle both had that "so tired because we have a newborn" look. Jake had a cold and kept coughing, sunk down in his hoody.
