To Ohio

Went to Ohio in mid-May. Buried Jackson's remains in a small service, appropriate for the boy. His body's gone, but a rock cairn stands in his memory looking over a sweep of lawn surrounded by woods. A spot of earthly heaven for a dog. Took in the green--it was as green as the Amazon. Saw friends and family. Enjoyed time spent with my mom, especially our hikes in the woods. A perfect trip.
