On Saturday, I spent a most wonderful day at the Huntington Library with my husband Bruce, our son Jason and his wonderful wife Georgette.
It was splendid.
We had lunch in the Rose Tea Room
And wandered through the spectacular gardens
But it was the thought behind the afternoon that will always stay with me.
When I decided to go back to school and finish my degrees in late 90's, I was sent on one of those ghastly field trips to the Huntington. The purpose of the trip eludes me now...but the goal I set does not.
When I was there, I found out that there was a Scholar's Library that you must be a ...well, you must be a scholar in order to request admission. As I stood there with my ten little community college credits grasped tightly in my heart, I promised myself that I would one day gain access.
And now I have.
My family remembered.
And I will never forget that they did.
Thank you.
