me and my cuzz teddy, I wish I would be able to go back and have that same purity I did have at that age, but now, reality sets in and all i can do is go on, I hope with alittle more humility.(this poem speaks well to me about my home___"when we two parted" 'when we two parted, in silence and tears, half-broken hearted, to sever for years, pale grew thy cheek and cold, colder thy kiss; truly that hour foretold, sorrow to this. The dew of the morning, sunkchill on my brow, it felt like the warning, of what I feel now. Thy vows are all broken, and light is thy fame; I hear thy name spoken, and share in its shame. They name thee before me, a knell to mine ear; A shudder comes o'er me, why wert thou so dear? They know not I knew thee, who knew thee too well: Long, long shall I rue thee, too deeply to tell. In secret we met, in silence I grieve, that thy heart could forget, thy spirit decieve. If I should meet thee, after long years, how should I greet thee??? WITH SILENCE AND TEARS... George Gordon, Lord Byron 1788-1824.......

 What a beautiful poem! It truly communicates from the soul. Your site is very interesting as well, the pictures truly tell the story of Alaska...
