Highlights from Ps & Q

On Sunday, we got to sleep in a little bit and have a bit of a lazy morning, which was really nice. Later, we all got together and headed into Vail. We masked up and walked along the river for a while. The kids had a great time being outside.We found a nice spot for...

And on the 158th day he rested.Yeah, not much interesting went down on Friday anyway, so I'm taking a day away from posting. But thanks for checking in! I always appreciate it.I'll just leave you with my usual, "be safe out there!" And I'll share this cute picture of...

For the last week or so, I'd been preparing for my first virtual membership meeting. I am the executive director of a regional trade association, and I report to a board of directors and a group of members. We traditionally have two in-person meetings each year, one...
