and what a way to go….you will hear much more about this trip later as I’m still unpacking. I went with my daughter on a Backroads Hiking Tour of Southern Patagonia. It was spectacular in so many ways: sites, hikes, food, wine and guides.  And the other guests were delightful.  What fun, so much laughter, so much help and so much camaraderie among people who had just met.  Will try to get my blog up and running again by next Monday.
