Yesterday was a bittersweet 24 hours, filled with good byes to friends and Julie's home in South Carolina. She and I spent several hours in sorrow, but welcomed a new beginning for her as she returned to Grand Junction, where she and Jack lived the first five years of their marriage. As she said, she left Colorado as a wife and is now returning as a widow.
We flew back to Grand Junction from Rock Hill, SC via AeroCare air ambulance on a Lear 35 jet with Sven, the Norwegian pilot, and three other staff assisting us in all ways possible for a safe trip home via air. Here are pictures from the journey yesterday.
