How wonderful is that? Thank you! I am excited to read your PR book.

[And thank you for your perspective about discussing illness. I am never sure whether I have a right to an opinion about that. My only challenges have been relatively minor, but I have family members with mental illness and MS, friends battling cancer. The longer I live, the more convinced I am that we each will face our demons one way or another. Thank you for your openness, which I believe is both helpful and heartening.]

I feel the same way about summer, especially since I have the good fortune to live in a beautiful place where people gather, unmasked, and too often manage to both drive and walk in a manner careless of others. We look forward to rain and cooler days.
