Beth m'dear... I'm so sorry to hear of Brian's passing away. From what you've said about his adventuresome spirit, I picture Brian would tell you to go ahead and take your trip and enjoy it enough for the both of you. I'm still hoping to see ya here in L.A. within the next coupla-three weeks, tho will understand if there's a change in your plans due to the loss of such a dear friend. Much love....
