Last Wednesday, we had the good fortune to be able to share dinner with Karen Reider and her oldest son, Aiden. The next day, they left on a year long adventure - one of hope and healing; one of suspense and surprise; one of growth and challenge. I have posted the link on the left to her blog - My Attempt at RTV - but she has also just posted the first video segment of their trip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYOfmqXehk4 . Karen - we send you love and prayers!

You will notice that like many other bloggers, I have a list of blogs posted here that I encourage you to check out. They cover a wide range of interests and are on the list for a variety of reasons. Some are friends, some are folks I don't know but appreciate what they have to say. I especially want to point you to the blog I just added to the list: my attempt at RTV, written by Karen Reider, life partner of the late singer/songwriter Katie Reider who died much too young this past summer. Karen and her boys are trying to pick up the pieces after Katie's death and this blog allows Karen to share the journey with us all. It's a gift to all of us who knew Katie and know Karen, and it's a gift to anyone who has lost someone they hold dear.
