Grayson and I had a really good time at the Porsche Experience Center today. He photographed the cars and the building to his heart’s content while I followed him the same way I used to follow Charlie on his photo expeditions. I didn’t realize how much I missed the simple afternoons of just walking around and watching Charlie photograph. It was a big part of my life with him.

Grayson and I talked about returning to the Porsche Center during his spring break in 2025, and inviting Tyler and Lincoln to come along. They are all car enthusiasts and since Tyler is over 21, he can actually test drive a Porsche on the racetrack with Grayson as a passenger.

I invited the Kearns next door for Consolation Apple Crisp Dessert after last week’s election. They brought the vanilla ice cream and I doubled the amount of crisp on the apple crisp, just because. You can’t have too much crisp. We commiserated about the election but somehow segued to old photos of the girls with Charlie. Here’s two I had never seen before when Lucy was about 4 years old.
