It Isn't An Adventure Unless Someone Almost Dies

Greeting from the Center Of The Universe, I will get to the "almost died" part later.  But I guess I should give you an explanation about the Center of the Universe. Steve's daughter Erin and her boyfriend Matt joined us for a few days at the Center of the Universe.   How do we know it is the center?  It is marked by a fancy manhole cover in the middle of an intersection in downtown Wallace, Idaho.   Twenty-six years ago the mayor of Wallace declared that they were the center.  His reasoning was that there are four mountain passes that come right through the middle of Wallace.  As good a reasoning as any, since no one knows where or if the Universe has boundaries.  And now the small tourist and mining town has a new reason to hold a little festival/celebration each year. I hope this letter finds you doing well.  My friend Margaret got COVID and is still weak and tired from it. She is working her way back into her biking and exercise rout...
