I am sitting here in my moms mink jacket, a string of pearls with a large tear drop of amber with a leaf in it. one of my mothers crowns and her shear leopard scarf that smells like her.

That is a charming mental picture of you walking into the gas station all bedecked but still in jeans. Sounds like she was quite the woman.

Wow... I didn't realize she was such a figure in MN "history"! I have a hat from a lady like that who used to be deep into such things here in Saint Paul. I felt kind of funny - it was a bid I won at her estate sale - but what a house full of closets and (all be it voyeuristic) memories! From a time when such lightness and silliness really meant something! We've so lost that... not entirely - Winter Carnival and bits of the State Fair still have a wistful fringe of it...

A peaceful and lovely Mother's Day to you!
