Beautiful as always, Chuck. You are the epitome of Oliver Sacks' sentient being, "a thinking animal in this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and adventure." Much more to come for you and Ali.
Man I feel this one hard. With Covid and kids and work and school and days just ticking away, there will never be "enough" time. I've found myself dreaming bigger but looking much closer for little adventures. Watching birds out the back window isn't the same as hiking to a waterfall, but it's better than blowing a day on twitter.
Hope you get well soon. And enjoy all the new favorite spots you haven't found yet.
SaGe had the same experience a few months ago, getting covid in the last few weeks before we moved out of Seattle. Man it sucks, but I hope you get to feeling better soon.
You reminded me of a Robert Frost quote, "like a piece of ice on a hot stove, the poem must ride on it's own melting" ...or something like that... Life and love might be like that, and ride on their own melting too. So please take it easy on yourself, and good luck on the move. We're sending y'all lots of love and hoping to see you both sometime this summer!
Thanks Chuck! Turns out I had/have Covid as well, just grateful it's not too severe.
And in full transparency, I got the quote and idea from John Greene... But things seem to be melting all over the place so I'm gonna use it. Good luck sir.

Amen to all that. Thank you!

Still figuring out our road trip details but I will let you know if we can make Colorado happen! And that's a hell of a quote. Thanks for sharing!
