Good morning! It’s hot. I could cite details, but at 93% humidity, does it matter? We started watching The Waterfront this week and are halfway through the eight-episode inaugural season. It’s not my usual cup of tea but so far so good. Be kind to each other. Community is how we win.

Good morning! Weekends are for family walks, so we took both dogs to the park. Beth and Mr. Chew ended up quite a bit behind us on the first mile, and the boy was not amused. Eventually, we all caught up with each other, and you could see their joy. Be kind to each other. Community is how we win.
