I am thrilled to have voted for Kamala Harris. I’m joyful and hopeful that this is going to go our way (and, of course, nervous that it won’t). If Trump shares anything in common with Grover Cleveland, I hope it’s that he will be completely forgotten.

Productive days in the archives! Today I found this beauty showing homes on the corner of 4th and Chestnut in 1799. 3 dwellings, 1 shared privy, 1 privy door, 2 privy seats, no division between them. Think how much of a pain in the ass it is to share a *driveway* with a neighbor!
