There are two trails. I have only hiked the first trail. A group hikes the 2nd trail. They are both about the same length of two to three miles. However, the second trail is at a higher elevation.

I am driving when a group finishes the second trail. They are tired. I give a few of the older people a drive back.

The next day Paul and I are to go hiking with Madeline and Jack. I am sleeping. Jack calls at 8:25 and wakes me up. There is confusion on what trail we are to meet at to go hiking.

Day Notes: getting ready to leave AZ-cleaning and packing, etc. Started writing to Kevin in a journal. Bryn suggested that as an exercise. That has been helpful to freely express my emotions. I think Bryn meant it for putting out positive emotions/feelings towards Kevin. However, I am not there yet! I also worked on my VHS’s of Kevin and Kelsi when they were young. That helps with positive emotions.

I think the setting is a small B and B. A man is shot in the head and comes back to life. I am in another culture. I use these small bottles and one regular bottle for drinking. (water?) This disturbs the people but they are OK with it. They just want to know what’s going on.

I am now the son of the guy that was shot. We, with other family members go together for a family get together. I am a bit nervous.

Daynotes: Monday of the week we are flying back to Minnesota. I am busy getting ready.

The grandkids stayed overnight. This morning we hung out while Cullan made their breakfast. Wyn grabbed my wallet and pulled out an old card from the Edina realtor who helped us buy this house. I told Wyn he could keep the red card. He called it a “ticket.” Ten minutes later I got a text from the realtor congratulating us on our fifth anniversary at Rustic Lodge. That made me smile, and Smilie is the realtor’s last name.
