If you could pick up a new skill in an instant what would it be?

What’s something you want to do in the next year that you’ve never done before?
I stared at this question for a while wondering why I don’t have an answer. I think the things I want to do are all things I’ve done before. Maybe the thing I need to do is consider new things to do. I’ll go with that.
What’s your favorite place you’ve ever visited?
Anywhere I can find Karina. I found her at the Grand Canyon a couple of times. That first glimpse of the Grand Canyon is a moment that kind of stunned me, it’s full of awe.
What’s the best advice you’ve ever heard?

How do you like your eggs?
Over medium.
What’s your favorite breakfast cereal?
Whatever the kids haven’t finished.
