It was the summer of ’67 when we three girls – 21/22 years old – decided to travel across Canada to California. We left Northern Ontario in Barb’s tiny blue car – when gas was 32 cents a gallon. Barb drove all the way there and back as neither Aline nor I could drive. We passed through Ontario – the Prairies – through Alberta’s hoodoos and the Rockies to sit on Kits Beach in Vancouver – dipping our toes in the Pacific. Then our real adventure began as we reached our final destination – San Francisco. We forgot to wear some flowers in our hair but we did experience the psychedelic lights without inhaling – standing on the corner of Haight and Ashbury Streets. Heading home through the northern States – and Montana’s badlands – was an adventure that I so fondly remember as Aline and Barb were the best friends to share this with. And so, George, it is with much sadness as I share your grief. You and Aline shared a lifetime of memories together – the laughter – the delights – the love – the caring for one another. May God’s healing love, His comfort and His grace cover you like cherry blossom petals in Spring.
