We just spent two weeks in Upstate New York with my huge extended family, an annual pilgrimage that almost always gets me off the grid enough to unexpectedly skip an edition or two of this newsletter.

I should obviously let you know that this could happen, but I also really appreciate a few of you who reached out to let me know you missed the emails!

And of course, I do apologize if missing these curated event lists left you hanging at all.

I will say this: if I *do* ever decide to stop sending them entirely, you will know ahead of time.

Let's get into it.
