A Much Needed Break

It has been a challenging few months.  Rick working part time in Boulder, Colorado, managing some difficult challenges, my mom undergoing back surgery and the family managing her long rehabilitation, and myself dealing with end-of-fed-gov't-fiscal-year deadlines that requires triple the amount of the paperwork to keep projects moving forward.  But I believe that I am at a point that I am ready to leave without suffering from pangs of guilt or worry . . . and I am so looking forward to this long needed break from the day-to-day grind to reconnect with my husband and the natural world.
