Laura and I got back from MIT late last night and left this morning to fly to Amarillo, Texas.

I remember the first time I made this flight to meet my husband’s family, when I looked out on that barren tableland, and asked God why He couldn’t have made me fall in love with someone from Switzerland or Hawaii. Since then, I have learned that what this place lacks in terms of topography, it makes up for in terms of people.

We’re looking forward to seeing the wonderful folks there; it has been four years since we’ve been back.

The Amarillo airport has been named after Rick Husband, a local astronaut who made a big impression on our oldest daughter by personally writing her kindergarten class because of her dad’s Amarillo connections.

I work to amplify good wherever I find it. I love color, texture, beauty, great ideas, nature, metaphor, deliciousness, genuine spirituality, and exploring new territory. I encourage authenticity, nurture creativity, champion sustainability, promote peace, and hope to foster a new renaissance where we all are free to be our most fulfilled, multifaceted, and terrific selves.
