| Family get together the night before we left for Denmark. |
Written from JFK in New York, on the way to Copenhagen.
One of the blessings of this past summer was that our renter wanted to move into our house on August 1. This forced us to get the house ready in July, which took most of the month. But then in August, we were free, and it was grand: biking in Butte, backpacking in the Missions, a big day the Bitterroots, the Glacier Classic, the Dearborn, Lost Trail Bike Fest, and then a final hurrah Mineral + Sheep mountain bike ride in the Rattlesnake with Jen a few days before we left. With our newfound freedom comes new work (life is relentless), as we navigate the change back to it being just the two of us. I have also been going through a major personal reorientation over the past year. As I leave Missoula for 9 months abroad, I feel blessed by all of the positive change in my life and that I have such a great place to come back to.
