Day 3,254

Growth:

Memory dividends pay off again! Over the past two days I’ve had several memories of our Patagonia trip slide back to the forefront of my mind. Songs, photos, comments, and a book have all jogged my memory. Not just that one, but so many other trips have also come flooding back. As we talk about where to go with our campervan we’ve gone back to so many adventures.

As we talked on our ride back from the apple orchard Gavin mentioned how grateful he is for the way we’ve taught him to prioritize experiences over stuff. At sixteen he’s already starting to get it.

Invest in experiences for the memory dividends, skip the stuff, only get the gear you need for the experiences… that’s more than you will ever truly need.

Appreciation:

Not gonna lie, being in bed before 8:30 on a Saturday of a three day weekend so we can get an early start on hiking is exactly what my soul craves!

Sleep early, wake up early, walk or hike while the world sleeps. What could be better than that?

Okay, maybe it gets better by adding a twist… doing that all with Becky as we start mapping out future trips, travels, and adventures.

Presence:

The moment my right nostril cleared out completely and I could breathe through both at the same time for the first time in literally weeks…. So invigorating!!!

Thanks!!!
