My dad, who was skiing early last week on Lone Mountain (he and my stepmom are ski-hosts there) was so depressed after being in the hospital since friday. He's out of the woods now! Happy dance. Home tomorrow.
Seriously? On the way to the hospital to see our dad(and he has had a complete turn around and is doing fabuloso) we have Matt's emergency eye doc appt(big blurry floater suddenly appearing in his eye)and then he just HAS to visit a gaming store...
Well kids, this is where I find myself today. On the way out to MT to see my dad. His skiing days were cut short this season and he's in hospital. My bro and I are taking a road trip. Mainly to cheer him up because the old man hates not being up and around. And hates hospitals more.

GPS says we just keep driving straight for 750 miles...
Switched out my class material and focused on the unforgettable experience of Notre Dame for tonight's class. .
The experience of a cathedral, stimulating all the senses in a way that isn't conceptual but experiential - it allows for such a complete body involvement that you can recall it with intimacy, across space and time, and be there again, in a heartbeat. .
We listened to the bells in class-a delicious full 6 minutes. Beautiful, wild and so heartbreaking all at once. ❤️❤️❤️
And...as the light changes.
Ahhhhh.....beautiful neighborhood❄️❄️❄️
