Nice post, Jeanne. I just hung up with my sister in Ohio who turns 90 today. We never lived in the same house together but have kept close and deeply appreciate one another--like you and your Pops.

Yep, there's plenty of existential threat to go around... and did you mention Israel? Some of the battles I fight invigorate me but many are wearing away any resilience I can depend upon. So, enjoy being "home" and spending time with your father.

Jeanne, drink in this time. I miss my parents as they’ve been gone for quite some time. And I rarely get back to Ohio. Enjoy the colors. Thanks for all you do!

All of this. A group of my long time pals had a get together and we were just talking about the loss of friends that we never thought possibly a decade ago.

None of this is easy.
