Danny and Suzie had spent decades planning this trip. They were young when they married, and money was scarce. Danny promised he would one day take her on a dream honeymoon. Suzie dreamed of Hawaii.  Life always interceded, and they postponed their trip. Four babies came with bottles, bicycles, and braces. The years flew and there were college tuitions and wedding celebrations. They never stopped dreaming. They researched and planned but family was more important.  Today they would view the lava flow where it entered the ocean. Suzie hugged the urn in her arms. She didn’t want to say goodbye.
