After a week of unpacking closets, identifying family memorabilia spanning five generations, hauling trash, meeting lawyers and funeral directors, and taking my aunt and uncle on their last trip out to sea in the Gulf, I got to the Gulfport airport just in time to find out that my first flight was delayed and I'd miss my connection in Atlanta to Montreal.
Last week, my uncle died. He lived alone in Gulfport, Mississippi. His partner died a few months ago. My mother is his closest relative, but she doesn't travel much any more, so I flew down to take care of the practicalities and settle his affairs.
This one was hiding in the cracks of the tree. Must've been an odd sight to see someone almost putting their eye in the tree. #mosstodon #mushrooms #fungiverse #macro #vondelpark #amsterdam
