Albemarle County has just dipped into the CDC “medium risk” aka no masking required level which throughly excites me. As a long time mask hater, (but vax lover!) I am thrilled to think about returning to church without a mask. Church being pretty much the only place I was still required to wear one. TomorrowContinue reading “Spring + a short playlist”

Spent a couple days in Texas with family. Had a small baby shower, went to the Fort Worth Zoo, and explored Big Rocks Park on the Paluxy in my hometown.
Thankful for some wonderful meals with friends the past couple of days. I’m excited to leave bright and early tomorrow for a combo Texas + California trip but in my heart I’m already looking forward to being back home in Charlottesville ❤️

In just a few short days I burned my way through this excellent and profound novel; what a beautiful journey!
