A few days ago Cody Yates my 26 year old fellow missionary from Texas put down a deposit for an RV spot and borrowed his employers old RV. Well, after an almost 4 month stay at the Lucas House Cody moved out this afternoon after church. He will work in the Denver area for the next month constructing custom sheds and will then head back to Texas to his grandfather's ranch on the Guadalupe River. His grandfather is ailing and needs Cody's help.
Well, first Bonnie Coffey left to go back to Florida now Cody. I miss both of them very much. They have left a big hole in my life here in Idaho Springs. We had a lot of camaraderie as well as heartache while living here in the Lucas House.
Cody and I would watch movies late at night and over analyze the shows plot. I will miss that for sure especially as I watch movies by myself late at night.
Miss Bonnie too. She has been gone for months now. She was a huge help for me.
As I have said many times before: life is all about saying "hello" and "goodbye".
Now, it's just me knocking around in this big old house all by myself. A wave of loneliness hit me just now. I just realized I will probably never see Bonnie or Cody again this side of the grave.
Oh well. What can I do? It will be even more lonely up in the cabin after I move in. That's my life. And, that's OK
