Summer Park County Fair Moon
Kate had to take a large detour due to a forest fire in southern Wyoming. She spent the night in Aspen, both north and east of Utah. The next hundred miles will take her to Driggs where she’ll pick up BJ and drive her into Jackson Hole for a new hospital bed and examination by the shoulder surgeon. If the shoulder’s swelling has gone down sufficiently, the shoulder repair will happen at 5:30 pm.
Jon’s situation has gotten more difficult. The path forward has become murkier for right now. So much of his life is changing and in ways not fully predictable. He’s still working at the house in Denver, trying to finish before Monday when Jen and the kids return. I’m going in today and we’ll have sushi in Lodo, a trendy neighborhood near downtown.
The dogs and I have the house to ourselves. With the exception of the Timberline painters. They completed the first coat on the garage yesterday. The deck on the house, too.
Black Mountain Drive exists in the eye of a family hurricane. The winds are fierce further out in Denver and up in Driggs, Idaho. Here on Shadow Mountain we exist in relative calm.
