We are back home in France after a LONG trip to the USA!

We spent 10 days in Colorado and 16 days in Arkansas. It was fantastic to be in Colorado and see all our friends whom we haven’t seen in 5+ years. Colorado is so beautiful! We remembered why we liked living there so much.

We also had to clean out a storage container in Colorado. It had all our stuff from our time there, and it feels good to get rid of that cost. It was painful to see all the stuff we had accumulated during that period of our life. I think it is motivating both of us not to buy as much stuff going forward.

I had a great time hanging out with family in Arkansas as well. Among many other things, we went to the fair and Silver Dollar City, which was super fun to do with Calico. It was good to get some longer chats with family.

On the frustrating side, I hurt my back while I was there but managed to do a lot of rehab to get it back to almost normal. I also am very behind on work due to the trip not having a great place for me to work from, and if I do this trip in the future, I am going to have to figure out a better desk setup there. Working from dining room tables is not great on my back.
