My car mechanic. Got my car back today, and after a moment of panic and loss of confidence, because the clutch pedal was still sticking ... I had to pry it up with my foot, once, and then it was okay.

It's the strangest thing. Always good energy and highly spirited, I saw a different behavior at the beach. He never saw the ocean until about the age you see him there. Over several visits in '11 and '12 I had him on the beach and a strange calm would come over him when he looked out at the water and waves. It's like I understood that emotion exactly.
I had him cremated and they put his ashes in a fancy wooden box. I'll keep a small amount to make a talisman but I think I'm going to scatter most of them in the surf or off the pier in the area where most of the pictures and video I took of him were made. Some I've posted in the past.

Wait. when you say "give him back", is that a figurative way of saying send him back to the earth from where he came? It's the strangest thing.

But then again, you never know when your last inhalation hits you.
One thing I observed on the dying, at last, they always inhale but don't exhale anymore... up to the inner skies they seem to go and vanish for a no-returner.
