<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">hi there, again. thanks to so many of you for your support and encouragement in response to the ironwood journey to colorado. i want to clarify something that has been brought up to me... i don't actually know how long we'll be in colorado. maybe it will only be a few months... when i wrote that we would be back at moonshadow by next summer, i meant that was the longest we'd be away. we'll certainly be back for next summer. but you may hear word that we're headed back much sooner. who knows? life is full of twists and turns, right? <div><br></div><div>thanks for all of the love,</div><div>asha<br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate;
