Mom was born in Busan, South Korea. She first set foot in the U.S. in 1980. We always said that "home is where the army sends us." When dad retired, home sweet home was Kentucky. Mom visited Colorado for the first time the summer of 2011. We camped at Tucker Ponds campgrounds during her stay. She misses Korea and Kentucky, but now we're living and loving life in Colorado. So there you have it, home is where the heart is.
