My head is still foggy from the emotion of yesterday, but what a beautiful grand finale to the BLT show that has been such a part of my life these last three years. I shared the hour {and the day} with people dear to my heart, and I wondered if it would be okay to share a photo tribute to the day....
Ryan came to work with me to be part of that final BLT. Here we are with Lynne right before the grand finale:
I took him with me to the studio with the morning guys to be part of the next-to-the-last PB&J show. We had a lot of fun on that.
Lynne and me at the start of BLT. We had both just cried our way through my Dad's prayer...so this is our
this really is the end look.
My dad sat in the studio with us. He gave his radio love to me...and I gave it to Ryan...and so the legacy continues.
My mom sat in our office to listen. We tried to persuade her to join us in studio, but she needed her space, and that's okay too.
It appears this might have been DURING prayer. :)
Ready!
Radio looks good on him, doesn't it?
Just a little opera selection. {Kidding. But it looks like that, doesn't it?}
This show always brought me so many smiles. And though today there were also many tears...there were still many smiles.
Lynne offering wisdom...or practicing her whistling. I'm not sure which.
Crying already!!
Always the {fabulous} storyteller...
Cracking ourselves up....
Little disconcerting when the fire department showed up.
{Turns out they were just taking a tour of the building.}
Showing Ryan a message someone texted.
Listening to a caller...
Such stories they told...I cried. A lot.
It was a lovely hour. And all too soon, it was done.
You can hear it
here if you missed it...
...and here's the day's crew. Lynne and PeggySue {the new producer} on the left, and me with Ryan and my parents on the right.
So grateful for the celebration of this day. For every call, every email, and every kind word offered on Facebook. A treasure.

How wonderful to have your folks and Ryan there with you. I am sure you'll take yesterday's memories with you for years to come!
Good to see that Mom didn't put her hand in front of her face when someone else had the camera.
