not bad for 85

Getting old is scary, as we know, not only for ourselves, but for our younger relations.  It is shocking for me to realize that when I drove my mother and her household goods to Mexico from Maine 20-odd years ago she was the age I am now. It may be even worse for Hannah, who sees what's coming for me—though likely not for herself yet. She has had to do tech support for aging minds during the whole trip. But time marches on: In 20 years, Camilla will be doing tech for her!

Your Mom is looking good.
I hope her smiling face means that this trip is going well for everyone.
