Yea, this pandemic disruption is starting to suck.
Two months I could hunker down and get through. Three months OK. Four months? Five? The rest of the year? Into the next? With each day breaking the record cases of the one before, this massive disruption is here to stay for a while.

Have you ever taken a whitewater rafting trip? That’s what Covid-19 virus days are feeling like right now.
Three weeks ago, I was lazily drifting down the river, enjoying the view. A thundering sound ahead jarred me to attention. Coming around a bend and I’m heading directly for some Class V rapids...and I’ve lost my paddle!

One of my favorite places so far in Prague has been the Cathedral of St Vitus, St Wenceslas and St Adalbert at Prague Castle. It’s a half-cloudy day, but the sun at this moment is streaming through the elaborate stained-glass windows (with an interesting ‘beaux-arts’ style window designed by Alphonse Mucha), painting the stone floors
Are feeling in a rut? A bit too comfortable in your comfort zone? Finding it hard to get energized by work you used to love? Or struggling with too much on your plate? Time for a trip! I’m not talking about the same old beach house vacation (although that can be a great stress reliever
