Woody

Today's post has absolutely nothing to do with Homes or Running or Recipes or Baseball.  Every now and again someone will touch your life so unexpectedly that it throws your day-to-day routine out the window.

My sister lives about 600 miles from me in the charming town of Corbett, Oregon.  Several months ago she insisted that I take a moment and watch a video about Woody, a really sweet man that lives in her community.  It sounded sweet.  It was important to my sister.  So I watched it.  You should too.

I was not prepared to be spun off my axis the way I was.  As a person who never cries I was not prepared to be struck so emotionally on so many levels.  It is cathartic and cleansing and simply heart-wrenching.

I don't want to say anything more about it because I think everyone should see this and experience it for themselves.  What I will say is Woody must be an actual angel.  He was able to make me tear up, hundreds of miles away, never having met him.  He restored my spirit while breaking it a bit.

Godspeed Woody.  And thank you.
