[Wonder why blogging has been slow? I spent the weekend in Redding, CA with some very special people.]

I am ending my trip to Redding, CA after sitting in airports waiting for fog to lift to get back home and even experiencing an airport terminal evacuation.

My family is hanging out with me at one of my fave coffee shops of all time, Yaks.  I just ate an enormously delicious cinnamon roll and have big coffee mug in hand.  I will be meeting with my good friend Erich, working on my wedding remarks for Zach and Karina, and hoping my family can get through some online lessons for their homeschooling.

After 5 months some things really do change.  Yaks, for instance, is adding a fancy coffee roaster.  They are not settling.  I love that.  Other things here in town will be the same the next visit I make.  This reminds me to not settle in with life, but to keep dreaming, growing and living.

How have you NOT settled and is that being “unsettled” a good thing to you?
