I hope you guys have a wonderful time but I feel a little like Alma at the door, with my purse on my shoulder, watching y'all hop in your truck together.

Henrypie,
doesn't it make you feel like the Aero was years ago? I sure feel that way, and I wasn't even there!
hmmmm....time is strange.

I still wish I could have made it to that.

Why, thank you! ;D

That scene is soooo wonderful and so touching. I know what you mean though; I really, really, really love that shot with all my heart!
This triggered something in my mind: Brokeback Mountain, to me, speaks volumes on how time escapes from us. Obvious, I know, what with unforgettable lines like "There ain't never enough time, never enough..." (I hope I got that right). But when I really start to feel the times changing in the movie is when Ennis pulls up in his truck on Brokeback on one of their camping trips. It's when Jack smiles at him and Ennis brings Better Most beans (but we don't actually get to see the beans; we just see this event from a distance).
Something about that scene really demonstrates, to me, the change taking place. And it kills me. Later on, as Gustavo's excellent "Riding Horses" plays when we see Jack and Ennis when peacefully riding around Brokeback Mountain carries a similar effect.
I still feel devastated for them and there's nothing I can do to save them now. :'(

That's beautiful, Barb. Oh H-pie, I would so love for you to come. This time I have my own room. It won't be the same. Who's going to rattle paper in my face to make me stop snoring? (People find that a very endearing story about you, H-pie. Or maybe about us?)
Love.
