On the road again, driving to Borculo, yes, I never heard of it as well.
We turned up at this house not sure if we had the right place. The garage door opened, indicating that we had the correct address.
I could see the dresser looking good in its brownness, and walking out was an old guy.
Kelli went over to talk to him while I opened the rear door of the truck.
As I walked over, he saw me and said “Are you a father and daughter team?”
Kelli burst out laughing, and explained who I was, I was laughing, pretending that I was offended. I could have come out with a raft of humorous retorts, but I held my tongue, content that he was deep in embarrassment.
He said he was 85, and he was good for his age, maybe his eyesight might have been a little off?
Kelli had a small feathered creature turn up outside the patio. We are not sure if it hit the glass and got stunned, but it was standing motionless on the slabs. Both the dogs had their noses up against the window trying to get out. Pushing them into the house she went outside and picked it up and held it for quite a while before it got the strength to fly away.
There is a belief that a bird can be a messenger from the departed trying to communicate, and as we are coming up to the anniversary of Kelli’s dad passing, I like to think it’s true.
Another Lifetime to go
