Jack Taber ’65

The last year has been spent dodging COVID and so far, so good, leaving the bucket list to grow even longer. Zoom became the norm for watching a 2-year-old granddaughter flourish as a bilingual child and continued participation in Osher Lifelong Learning classes. One of the classes was on the gems of Arizona and Utah as in National and State Parks. Plans to do a road trip to some of these sites were put on hold when I had a TIA event that gave me a helicopter ride to the Barrow Institute in Phoenix for a long weekend of tests which showed no permanent damage. The rest of the summer was exercise and recognizing how lucky I was. Zoom was put aside as our son and family made it to Prescott Valley for Thanksgiving. The photo attached was taken at ZION NP high on the Mesa looking toward Zion. This trek was incredible. Our drive to St. George’s through the Navajo reservation from Flagstaff was an eye-opening day. Two gems on the list are done. Have a great 2022.
