Good morning!

It’s Saturday. Greetings from Maryland! The cherry blossoms were past their peak in Portland when I passed through yesterday, but the aftermath was still everywhere. The streets and sidewalks and lawns and even cars were littered with freshly fallen pink petals of confetti, like remnants of a grand ticker-tape parade.

“Loss is nothing else but change, and change is Nature's delight.”

—Marcus Aurelius

Onwards,
