Summer 19

The four of us for 3 weeks together in June - Venice, driving down the coast of Croatia, the greek island of Spetses and working a small Ember project in Athens with 4 other leaders. Who knows where our kids will end up in the next few years so we try to get time like this.

In August, I went to visit Katie in Cape Town for a few days and although we had a great time being together, getting there and getting home was full of misery. Miserable: 3 missed connections and over 24 hours of flying on the way there including an unexpected leg through Doha, driving a rental car home from NYC on the way home because of another missed connection, and a stomach bug during the whole trip home. And there was a traumatic accident on my last day there when I ended up hitting and killing someone's dog. I would not have wished this on anyone.

Katie started her senior year in the UAE this past week. This coming weekend, we send Emily off for 9 months. Time doesn't wait. Put a mark in human history today.
