Remembering your friendship 💕

I had the fondest memory of you helping me balance myself as it was my first time country skiing in Mt. Bachelor when we spent our New Year’s Eve 2018 & New Year’s Day 2019 in Bend. Glad that we have spent a few more special holidays with you. Memories we will share to our grandson Tristan❤️
