Lynn, I am sure she told me where it was, I don't remember. It may be from the Ukrainian Village outside of Edmonton.
The girl in the second pic - in the Ukr. costume facing away - that's our niece.
The pic of the well - Angela is 10 years older than me, but I remember getting water from that well - it was so nice to pull up the water on a hot day to get a cold drink when we were playing on that street right across from our grandparents house. That was in Krydor, SK.
One of the country churches shown, in Orolow, is the district my parents each lived in - and that's the church they were married in.

Boy @avoncallingu - you're really going through the ringer. This may sound harsh, but you need to take a deep breath, and just go with the flow.
I've been there. The 1st time I went away on my own, I cried when I was trying to pack, cried at the airport, and every time I went someplace new, or places we'd visited together.
I forgot to pack 'stuff', but it didn't matter, I always take too much anyways. I had to buy some toiletries, and bought a couple of things. It really didn't matter.
It was just one step on the road to surviving on my own.
Just go with the flow. You have family for support with you; they'll watch out for you. Just lean on them when you need to.
TRY to have some fun, enjoy the trip, and you've got to SCREAM like heck at the games for me. Promise.
I hope this didn't sound too mean, it wasn't meant to be.

Thanks folks! The grief support group was very emotional. The "facilitator" seems very good. I will miss next week's session but be back for the next one.
Well - not packed but almost -
We will leave when we're ready tomorrow.
I should hit the sack. Try to get a decent night's sleep.
Take care!

OMG I don't know how/why, but I got a flashback from 1973 (I was 12)...
Goodness, I remember all the words, too.
Crazy weather here, really high winds, snow blowing everywhere. Very bad, apparently, in the south of the province, especially on the highways.
Have a great afternoon, everyone!
Dan, thanks for the

@cabmonk I do remember you! You said hi, so I said hi back.
