Columbus, Georgia, is the place I spent the first two decades of life, where I attended public school. But my real "ties to the land", my "roots", are actually to the forty-acre "country place" over the stateline in Alabama across the Chattahoochee River from Columbus. It's somewhat bittersweet to visit the place, since the memories of my departed parents are everywhere. But there's still a smell, a legacy, a longing to hold onto the past, that I feel every time I visit, which is only once or twice a year.

Susan and I were privileged to spend ten days in Bali.  Several days were spent traveling several hours from Ubud, our home base, to famous temples popular with tourists like us.  We didn't see all of Bali.  But the places we were able to visit yielded many interesting photos.
