Monday, April 4, 2011, arrived with the quiet awareness that time was running short. I awoke knowing that these were among my final days working at the Curation Facility at Fort Carson. The routine that had grounded me for years was nearing its end. My morning felt both ordinary and symbolic. Chai. Preparing for work. Driving familiar roads that soon would no longer be part of my daily life.

04.03.11: Packing, Family, and the Unknown Ahead
Sunday, April 3, 2011, was a quieter day, but one filled with reflection, preparation, and the growing realization that my life was about to change in ways I could not yet fully understand.
Much of the day was spent packing and preparing for the journey ahead. My belongings were already largely stored away. My RV sat in a storage lot, and additional items were tucked into a storage unit. I had intentionally reduced my footprint, preparing for what would become an extended journey across Australia, England, and beyond.
