When Amy Seinfeld became an empty nester, she knew in her heart where she'd move to next. She was set on trading in her Florida beaches for Colorado mountains, and although she got the majestic views of the great plains instead, she's still bright-eyed about her decision.

Dr. Amy Seinfeld is an osteopathic physi...

What made it more special was the fact that we were four hundred miles apart as we regarded the same moon and its intentional rise to illuminate a beautiful evening sky. There was comfort in having that as a touchstone in that moment. According to many, the moon is...
