Life Interrupted

My brother moved from Missouri to California in 1996. And he and I drove form Kansas City to San Mateo. It was the first time I was out west.

And until last year, I had been out west every year since.

Patty and I, and seven friends (all women) had planned to be out west this week.

At the place shown above, the Grand Canyon.

Like many people our plans have changed.

The good news is that our reservation at the Phantom Ranch has been rescheduled for 2021. Normally, and how we got our slots in the first place, one gets a bed at the ranch via lottery. And at first it seemed we'd have to go through that process again. But as the global, and local, situation worsened, things changed.

And I've another year to train.
