Chassis

Hey Salem,

You're staying the night at Grandma Rhoda's house and it seems like you guys are having a great time. These days you have a sudden fascination with monster truck chassis (specifically). You're into dinos as much as always, and you are deeply excited about Legos. You build your own chassis out of flat Duplo pieces, and sometimes we build different kinds of houses and buildings out of different magnetic shapes from this really cool set you have. You even built a gulag for army men, which was fantastically entertaining. You run around the house like a wild dinosaur every night, and just writing this is making me miss you so much. I love playing games with you, dude. Do you even realize what a joy you've brought to my life? Maybe that's why I'm feeling a bit down today, because when you are away it feels like a piece of me is missing. I know I'm being silly, but it's true. Ever since you've been around my life has been a lot different. I feel like I'm seeing the world all over again from your eyes, and I lose myself to my own imagination when we play games together. 

I'm so happy, it scares me.

So far, 2024:

• Chicago.
• Chicago-Colorado-Chicago.
• Virginia Beach
• Michigan stuff
• Grand Canyon.

Time shall tell..
