I first met Carol at a campout, probably in mid-2000, in Virginia, along with another friend, Barbara. The three of us kept in touch and met up at campgrounds in various places for many years after. One Spring Carol and I caravaned back East from Texas, stopping to explore a new place here and there. Carol was always happy, laughing, giggling. We really enjoyed each other's company. She was a delightful person. I'm so happy I had the opportunity of knowing her.
