Yesterday we attended a funeral for a lady who used to live just a few miles (through the hills) from us. We farmed their place for them for a few years until they sold it to our new friends and neighbors, John and Holly, and we still farm it for them. We've lost so many of the older folks in our neighborhood, and it's always sad to lose that history.
While at the luncheon afterward, I ran into an old friend from college. We lived across the hall from each other in the dorm when we were freshmen. She grew up between Scobey and Wolf Point and gets back once in awhile to visit her parents so I've seen her a few times in the years since college. Her brother is married to the daughter of the lady who had passed away. Yes, small world sometimes. Anyway, we had a good visit comparing our lives, discussing empty nesting and raising boys (she has 3). It is so fun to reconnect with someone from the past and find out about their life now. And, best of all, she told me I hadn't aged a bit. I think she lies....
