I spent that summer with my mom at her new place in Austin, TX. She found out that she had breast cancer on the day that she moved to Austin. Since I had no place that I had to be, I took this opportunity to stay with her during her surgey and radiation therapy. I am happy to say (and my mother too) that now (one year later) there are no remains from the cancer. | Summer, 2002 | Mom's house

 While in Austin is took a couple of trips. I
spent 2 days canoeing in
Missouri with Jim and his brothers.

 In Sep I left Austin and returned to San Diego via
the East Coast. I stopped in New Jersey
to visit Rose and Shannon. And then I met up with Ab & Jim
in Ab's hometown in Connecticut. I stayed on
with Ab's school chum Mary and her husband James in their cool
renovated barn. From
there I picked up my friend, Patti, in New York. We travelled
around New
England a bit before a long haul to the SouthWest
and then San Diego.

| Bertrand called this travelling where I am settling in and doing some self-evaluation: "Seelenverwandtschaft". A poor translation would be "spiritual affinity". | ||
