Week 21 - Departures

It’s cool this morning, as if Canada were saying goodbye and reminding us of what spring should feel like before we head back to the endless heat of Texas. I stood there on the balcony of our rental, for what seemed like too long, just breathing in the crisp morning air, laden with fragrant pine while the sun slowly rose in the east.

I don’t want to leave,  but I can’t stay.
