Ode to January

Wherein we breathe and begin anew.  We took our first hike of the year - short trail that overlooks Page Valley.  We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets and sunrises.  I am enjoying my new role and for the first time in a long time, I have a sense of hope about what the future might hold - a vision I did not see coming when I accepted this position.  Received good news in that the issue with my eye is progressing very slowly and the retina is stable.  Russia is still bombing Ukraine.  Covid is NOT over.

Wish on more things
