What a beautiful day to celebrate the first anniversary of Bruce's flight into a world of joy! I took my kayak to Lake Grapevine near Flower Mound, Texas armed with a couple of Bruce's favorite things—Shiner Bock beer and a hot dog plus rose petals to scatter across the water at sunset. This was a venture for two this year... just Bruce's spirit and me on the lake.

Just before sunset a Great Blue Heron flew up on the shore. He looked straight at me, then turned to greet another Heron that flew up beside him. They took off and flew across the water together into the sunset. I thought my heart would leap out of my chest. It was glorious to behold—perfect.

After drinking the beer, eating some of the hot dog and sharing the rest with the fishes it was time for a toast..."Cheers my Love—well done!"

Here are a few photos...

Linda - I just finished reading your First Memorial Celebration of Bruce and before I commented there I just googled his name and came across this touching tribute from yesterday.  The moment I started to read about the two herons on the lake I started to cry and immediately thought that this was the reason you were there so that you and Bruce could be together in a place you both so dearly loved. Up until today I did not know you or Bruce yet through your two beautiful posts have learned so much about you and your life with such a wonderful man like Bruce.  God Bless you always.

Linda.  I refer to his posts about VA loans at least once a week (you'll see me comment when I close one).I miss seeing his stuff but his legend continues...in me and many others.

Thanks again, Bruce.  We're funding one next week.
