A lovely afternoon

I just got home from my visit with Clare.  We went to lunch and then took a walk in Carkeek Park, something I've not done in quite a while because of the bumpy paths and the walker.  She gave me potted tulips (which will be my Friday blip) as a birthday gift.  I had such a wonderful time with her, talking and sharing thoughts and memories.  I'm sad to think that next week she will be moving to Portland, but we'll keep in touch.  I don't visit with friends often, because I always feel that they wouldn't be interested in hearing from me or getting together.  Clare is a person who reaches out; I admire that so much.  But after 76 years of "Who, me?", it's hard to change.
