Hey Carolyn, Your talk about your Mother, reminded me of mine, who died in 1996 she worked very hard on her gardens, and would tell me she'd have conversations with her parents who were gone, they are now in the spirit of good or bad, and of the earth and universe now, I'm thankful and restful she'd talk with her gardens and trees if something wasn't going her way because humans wouldn't cooperate. Twenty-four years later after she's been gone now, I'm not done either. About anyone can do is Live well. Thanks for your videos.

This was a very touching, heartfelt video......especially talking about your mom. I'm 70....so I am the mom, but fortunately, my health is still good and I am relatively active physically (and have lived full time in my Class C for the past 5 years). Thank you for sharing your feelings/thoughts. It is the end of an era and I find it quite revealing to realize that I am in that era of end. It's very sobering. I'm not done yet, but I know it's on the horizon.

I can remember when I was young how sad my parents were when their parents passed on. I never thought It would happen to me. Sending you much love and understanding, be safe Carolyn and have fun in your life.

Your thoughts were really deep...and I get it. I was a caretaker for my parent for about 2 years when they moved back from Florida. My Dad developed 2 types of cancer and my mom ended up with congestive heart failure and pulmonary fibrosis. My dad beat cancer but I lost both my parents just 9 months apart from each other and I went through an emotional hell. I literally could not wrap my head around it and I grieved heavily for five full years every single day. I am glad that you are able to mend ways with your mother and I hope that you have many, many more wonderful times spent together. Life is way too short. ♥️

Re: Berky’s - the girl’s dress is a classic plain people’s cape dress design, but unless I’m mistaken, she’s more Mennonite than strict Amish - though the entire culture is deeply related. Her dress was a small print, strict Amish is a plain solid color - the Sketcher’s is a another ‘clue’…but in the end it’s all good.

So touching. As time goes by, very true, negative memories, we grow older, wiser, develop senses of understanding, empathy. Thoughts of how things in life, choices made, reasons why, do turn to sadness. An “end” is so emotional. It’s like? Grieving. There was time, but time passes quickly…then? It’s gone. No do overs. Just sadness and yes, empathy. Which does come with understanding. {{Hugs))

My dad was a Wildlife Resource Officer in Tennessee and my sister and I went to dams often as children, to fish, play, etc... Rolling down those grassy embankments is one of my fondest childhood memories. Our skin was shredded by the newly mowed grass and stung at bathtime, but it was the most fun you can imagine as a kid. They were perfect for sledding as well. My dad died many years ago. My hardworking mom died just 24 months ago. Those memories are precious. I know exactly how you feel.

Resonated with me totally. My mom died in 2000. For the longest time, I would reach for my phone to call her to say, hey, did you hear about.... or guess what?..... or how you doing today?.... And then I realized she wasn't there anymore. Sadness again. Then when dad passed away several years later, I suddenly realized that I was an adult orphan. I had no earthly parents. The ones that brought me into this world were now gone. Strange. Sad. Lonely. But here I am. Struggling, but working on it. Just a different feeling when you know your parents are never going to be there for you again. Ever. In this life.

I feel that my mom will be there for me when i die. She will come and get me. I nearly was hit by a car a few years back but i literally saw it happen and i moved out of the way so i wasn't hit. I was positive that was my mom warning me to avoid it. How is THAT for intuition or whatever? She is out there watching over me. I know it. It never happened again and i have been in accidents but was never injured. SOMEBODY is watching over me. It felt like it was my Mom.

Our last stay at a close by COE in PA had non potable signs and the host said it was due to understaffing, they weren’t able to get there to inspect before the due date, so they had to post 🤔 I also have thoughts of things that could have been with my Mother. She had a rough childhood and felt she had to fight her way through the rest of her life. I would have loved to have been closer emotionally but she wouldn’t let anyone past her defenses. This campground looked so peaceful 😊

Maybe in your quiet moments with your mom she will tell you who she is...what her early life was like. My mom had a hard life, on her own at 16 yrs old. She was interested in so many things but had little money so she travelled through National Geographic magazine. Her behavior sometimes made me nuts but she instilled in me a love of learning, curiosity, a travel bug. I forgave her a long time ago when I realized she was only doing what she knew. I wish I could thank her for the gifts she gave me. Somewhere along the line you will realize she contributed to the strong and I think admirable person you are today. Forward ho!

My mother was so horrible to me...a very long story! But when she was diagnosed with cancer I was living close to her. I took care of her the last 4 months of her life. She admitted what she had done and apologized to me. Closure but it was sad ...so many wasted years for me... and for our relationship. I kept my head up thru those years....barely. it did give me solace to hear her admit what she had done....I pitied her. I have never been on her level and I am glad I was there for her. In retrospect I guess it always irritated her that I was very much like my Dad!

I lost my mom when I was about 24 and pregnant with my 5th baby. I just went to the cemetery the other day while I was in Los Angeles. It had been awhile since I was there. Sometimes I can't find her and swear they moved her out she moved 🤣 but I called out her name then I happened to look down and saw her. I have walked around where I know she should be but can't seem to find and I'll cry. I live in Riverside, CA SSI I don't get to Rose Hills very often. I wish I still had my mom, I miss her everyday😭😭😭 my dad died many years after my mom and he was living in Mississippi with my brother when he passed away in 2014 just 6 days shy of his 90th birthday. I miss them both. I'm a mom, grandma and best grandma. One of my daughters and I don't talk. I've tried to reach out but when I die she'll have to live with her decisions , I'll be gone. She just went through this when she was so hard on my youngest son, her Lil brother. She'll to live those decisions too.

We did a 3 week tent camping trip through the northwest years ago in Sept-Oct and we ran into snow. Ended up in a koa cabin for one night just for the heat!

Nice video and always fun to explore areas you might not be familiar with. Lake Erie has never been that polluted - Cuyahoga River that's a different story. Erie's biggest issue is algae blooms and if really bad storms hit - occasionally water run off from agriculture or a water treatment facility will end up in the lake. It's gotten better. Make sure Sadie is on Bravecto for ticks. My doggo has Lyme Disease and we are not sure when she was bitten.

Are you sure your knit pot holder is not a dish cloth? If it’s cotton, it’s probably a dish cloth. They are wonderful! Just make sure you rinse them well after using and lay out to dry.
