Carr Ford Road & Missouri

I miss a whole lot of things: Colorado, my amazing friends in Denver, life as a student at University of Oregon, my college roommates, my cousin Jake, my childhood dog Brittney, running half marathons, having my own apartment, Word of Life Christian Center, working full-time, reading for fun, etc. But when I saw the topic for today's post on the blog everyday in May challenge, one specific place came to mind almost instantly....Carr Ford Road.

Carr Ford Road is located in Missouri, and is the address to one of my family's properties. It's actually the street that my Grandma grew up on and is now home to one of my cousins and his family. It's just a 5 minute car ride away from where Grandma's current property is, which is the place she raised her family (my Dad and his siblings). We travel out there almost every year to pay a visit and every single time I'm heartbroken when it comes time to leave. You could say it's a place that holds my heart, and I'm almost certain I'll have some sort of place of residence out there one day.
