Home is where the heart is, they say. (and these are home pics from my travels to New York and Los Angeles.)
I had a most memorable day last week, Thursday... 
...after almost 40 years, to the day, since I emigrated to Canada, 
...when I took the oath of Canadian Citizenship. Wow, that was huge for me!
...I found myself very emotional, and I couldn't help myself as I started to cry, hand up to affirm the new oath, with 65 other new Canadians from 38 different countries, as I recalled the great pride my mother had expressed as she had done the same thing approximately 39 years ago. I wished my mom could have been there with me. Best I can do is hold her in my heart, with all my heart.
