Heading to a luxury dude ranch in Colorado, she hoped to reconnect with her 8-year-old daughter and regain a sense of peace. The ranch's amenities, including horseback riding, fly fishing, hiking, archery, and ziplining, quickly became a focal point of their trip. The author discovered that children ate dinner separately from adults, but discovered this separation allowed her to forge new friendships while reconnecting with her daughter. Activities like horseback riding, fly fishing, and a barn dance proved to be highlights of their week-long adventure. The author realized she was reconnecting with her authentic self during this time of freedom and adventure.",
