Ever since I can remember, I've always loved my older sister. I don't know if I always knew exactly wHo she was or why she seemed so fond of my parents, but I always loved her. What a fun coincidence that this neat lady had the same last name as me and my parents!!
My sister was aN adult living on her own when I was born. She lived somewhere far away, so any chance to talk to her was eagerly taken advantage of. MY parents packed up the RV one summer, and we made the journey to visit her, hiking and Fishing along the way.
My sister got married and had a baby girl when I was in junior high, and I got married years later.
This Christmas, my husband and I made that same journey to visit my sister and her husband and their little daughter, now an adult living on her own. The progress of time . . . !!!

What a wonderful and well-written story
Beautiful!
I've known others who end up with wondering sibling relationships despite huge age differences.
And yeah, it's hard to believe my nephews are now grown adults.
(See, I put nice comments on other people's blogs...unlike SOME PEOPLE!!!)
Well, Sir David, SOME PEOPLE don't go around making up ludicrous and fictitious stories on their blogs, stories that get their friends hopes up only to end in devastating disappointment in the end! I'll have you know I went into the street after reading your tale, and pounded the pavement, crying, "Why?!? Why?!?"
And your neighbors didn't call the cops on you?
Yes, they did. But when I explained the situation and the reason for my distress, they went and read your blog and started to do the same thing. When the cops came, they too, pounded the pavement in frustration and sympathy.
Who's Fred?
Fred is the intangible representation of all my friends and family, and other people, too!
Happy New Year, J!
