In a few hours Bri and I will begin the long ride up the mountain to fulfill Mike's dying wish which was to be cremated and scattered on Pikes Peak so he could blow to New Mexico. We've saved some for Hayfield football stadium in Alexandria, Virginia where Mike played football. We have saved some to make the trek to Japan with us. I am not ready for this journey to begin or end but Bri has requested that we do this and I will do anything for my child! The camera is ready, the ashes are bagged, the gloves and scarves are out (because it will be cold) and the tissues are in the backpack - ready to wipe away tears of love, anger, frustration, rage, grief, sadness - but mostly love. He is missed!
