Museum children

Dear Will -

Do you remember when we visited Les Nympheas in Paris and you had that talk with the museum guard about Les sauvages ... the visiting high school students?  Well, when I visited the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, there were lots of kids, but no savages.  All of them seemed quite content to listen to their teachers

We talked about visiting Amsterdam before I understand that your brain was dying.  I wish we could have seen the Rembrandts together.

I met another widow on tonight's beer tour.  She had also been a caregiver.  You know I don't have much small talk, so I find out pretty quickly which passengers have relatives with dementia and which are grieving.  I guess that's one of my gifts (or curses) to be willing to talk about death and disease.

But I miss our private jokes.

Love,
Kake
