Thanks, gw. I think I REALLY want to be laid down facing the sun, and that was in my mind.

My mother wrote us boys a letter and put it in a hidden place that we would find after she was in God's arms. In that letter she said remember me on a beautiful day when you look up and see the clouds it is me looking down on you. This reminded me of her words in that letter to us boys. A favorite Milton thanks for sharing...
