The afternoon sun cast long shadows across the park as Daniel leaned back against the ancient oak tree. A slow smile spread across his face as he watched the children play, their laughter echoing around him. Yesterday, he’d discovered Chloe's list. "Visit every national park."

He'd already started planning their first trip. The world seemed vibrant, alive with possibilities. He felt a sense of…buoyancy. He felt light. He stretched out his legs, drinking in the warmth of the sun and inhaling the crisp air. It was a good day.
