the looks, the laughs, the movements, the choices we made were all deeply imprinted in my being.\u00a0 This is a weekend that I didn\u2019t journal about.\u00a0 I did not have that chance to.\u00a0 But the movie we saw, the moon-rise we witnessed, the seals we marveled at, the hours of teaching\/ learning to long board, rocks we hopped, meals we ate, puns we created, shops we wandered, food shows we watched on T.V., miles on the road we journeyed, talks we had about Maya\u2019s future, are so very embedded.<\/p>\n<p><a
