Hi Rachel! This is Bert from the Bumble app. I’m so incredibly sorry to hear about your concussion. My hope is that it’s not been too bothersome for you and you’re just having to exercise a little bit of extra caution. I’ve had a few of those in my lifetime and a couple were quite nasty so I can appreciate where you’re at. BTW, Thanks for giving me your number 😊 I was excited to see that. I definitely want to meet you and have guacamole and chips and margaritas. But I want you to have the full experience too. if you’re OK waiting until you have the greenlight, I ’m very patient and happy to wait for you. We’ve been talking about this for a while and I don’t want you to feel cheated on the experience 😊 Let me know, and sending you lots of healing energy. Be well, Bert

Hi Bert Thank you for your kind message. I’m feeling better every day but the foggy brain isn’t fun. 😏 Maybe we can meet next weekend? BTW~ hiking Zion? Wow! That’s impressive.

Is Angels Landing a day hike?

Hi 👋 Glad to hear you’re feeling better each day. 😊 Next weekend could work for me. How about we pencil ✏️ in Friday and see how the week goes for you? And yeah Zion was truly incredible. I hiked it on my way to NY and on the return. The Narrows was first—a spiritual hike up river with water to your armpits in spots. Angels Landing was on the return. It's definitely a day hike. however, I would say the slower a hiker you are the earlier you should start. From the parking lot it is 1700 feet of climbing nearly straight up. 😁 Attached some pics

Wow! Great photos! So beautiful. You are officially pencilled ✏️ in for Friday. So, what kind of work do you do that allows you to travel months at a time?

Hi Rachel I'm doing well thanks! Week was busy. Had our first 2 soccer games this week and although we lost we were playing against much larger schools many divisions above us. Long story short, we played well and learned a lot Glad to hear that you are doing better. I’ve had concussion a few times and sometimes it took a while to feel myself again. I can’t believe it’s Thanksgiving week either. Are you traveling? Or are people coming to you? 😊

Hi Bert Soccer? Who plays soccer? ⚽️ My kids and I will have Thanksgiving at home and then we may head out on Friday to see family. We will have tri tip and all of the fixings. My daughter and I like to bake for the holidays 🎃🥧🍪 🍞. What do you all do for the Holidays?

Nov 18, 2023 3:02:04 PM Me

Hi Rachel My son Darragh is a senior this year at Thacher in Ojai. I’ve been assistant coach with  Thacher since 2018. Coached club soccer for 5 years before that. I’ve played since I was 7 😁 ♥️ tri tip! It’s typical for grandma’s and grandpa’s to come our way for the holiday meal since all three boys are here. There’s always too much eating and food comas. 🤣

Hope you are feeling a little better today

Sounds fun! My son played soccer for one year but decided to stick with baseball. Does your ex life in Ojai as well? After my divorce sharing the holidays was difficult but now it’s easier since my kiddos are older. 🦃
