Roots and wings
Packing is going slow ...
Just packing up my books has taken a couple of hours.
First, I had to read "The Zen of Running," a book my mom gave me that was published in the 1970s. It absolutely articulates the meditative state that running creates.
Then I found my journals from South America. I loved this quote from my journal:
"Sometimes I just want to be home, home with a log cabin and a semblance of a normal routine (try telling myself this when this actually what I have.)"
The best part of that quote is that I wrote it prior to my days in my lil' cabin ... I love how life manifests our deepest desires, and how I knew that while I would want the routine and cabin for a while, I wouldn't want it forever ... certainly we need a mix of roots and wings in life.
Now it is once again time to take flight ...

Amy, I'm so happy you are following your heart and beginning another adventure at Jackson Hole. We thought of you on Sat. while grilling and celebrating Rob's 21st at A Basin..banner day...bluebird skies and in the high 40's with zero wind.
Hope to catch you while you are here in the lower 48. Glad you are connecting with Karina.
Enjoy, kathy
