Good morning from Maine where the wind is howling but the sun is shining. Despite the wind it’s relatively warm and should be nice for playing outside once my kids wake up. I’m also planning to ride my bike outside today. How about you? Do you have anything you’re looking forward to doing this weekend? I hope so. After a long week of virtual classes, it’s nice to step away from the computer for a day or two. Which is exactly what I’ll be doing as soon as I finish this blog post.
