Geoff: This made my day. Thank you for sharing some of the wonderful experiences that shaped who you are. The serendipity nature of life is so impactful. Son #'s 2 & 3, have moved away from the USA, citing concerns with the country's direction and the 2024. election. One is now living in Germany and the other in Mexico. As I consider next steps- not a bad idea! Your insights are always heartfelt and appreciated. Enjoy the Labor Day weekend!
