haystack rock aka: Karmen
8 years ago Seann and I got married right about here. I grew up visiting the Haystack Rock as a kid, talking to it, naming it (Karmen), etc. I used to cry when we had to leave it. When it came time to get married, this was the natural choice (no pun intended). Right before our wedding, my dad was diagnosed with terminal brain and lung cancer. We did not know whether he would make it to the ceremony. He did make it and even gave a toast. He dressed like a pirate as he was bald from the chemo (complete with clip on earring). He died two months later. Needless to say, our anniversary is always bittersweet for me.
This year we finally went back and had a great time (with some sadness, too).
