Dear Friends,
I just returned from another trip – to Phoenix, by car. This was for the Teva Community board retreat. I am so proud to be on this board. It is a wonderful group of mindful, effective, and fun people. I am learning so much from them! And my ideas are listened to with respect.
I myself will likely not be one of their future residents, because I hope to live in Ireland or elsewhere in Europe one day. But I love being part of the vision for Teva in Prescott, along with many other spellers on the advisory board and my fellow board member Ben Breaux. This is an exciting model for thriving and respectful communities for speller adults. It is ambitious, but our board is extremely capable.
We had a great retreat, with a lot more clarity on our goals and how to achieve them. I am excited for our next steps!
I was still tired from the Ireland trip, as was Tara. But we enjoyed this hop to Arizona, and time with our friends connected to Teva as well as a fun visit to Phoenix Art Museum and viewing the eclipse. And the long drive, while grueling at times, is scenic in many places and so meditative. And now I am relieved to be home with no more travel planned for this year!
Your Friend,
Danny
