Travelling



The landscape was changing as they moved on; cities, suburbs, forests, mountains, lakes, cottages, more lakes, more mountains, forests, suburbs and finally cities again. Landscape can be interesting enough to make the hours fly by. Good company is even better. As the lovers traveled together, she drew him a genealogical tree so that he could learn the names of her family members that he was about to meet. Her family was not big, so it was quickly done.

Then she wanted him to draw his genealogical tree, both his mother's side and his father's. Just as her family was very small, his family was compensatory large. Completing his family tree, he drew both of their names into it. She felt honored to be included and also very touched. Some day they would make the family tree grow even stronger.
