Love and Logic Conference

The Love and Logic Conference in Colorado Springs, Co. last week was inspirational. It lifted my mood and should help the return to work on July 17.

While in Colorado, my youngest brother Tim passed away after a two year struggle with cancer.

I took fewer photos in Colorado Springs than expected. The light and weather were erratic. I had a car available, so I did all of my exploring on the day that I arrived and avoided the common tourist sites such as Pike's Peak. Unfortunately, I was a little tight on the budget and hesitant to wander off to find imagery. Nevertheless, I have almost finished a second roll of images that include shots in Denver.

Nichole, Jacob's wife had surgery for cancer scarring yesterday. It sounds like all is going well although there will be follow-up surgery next month. It is too early to know how it will impact Jacob's ability to return to Iraq later in the year.
