With Your Coffee

The Gateway Arch. My sister Sarah is traveling cross-country and entertaining me with photographs.

Good morning, happy Sunday friends! How are you doing? Snow? Gray January? That’s we have so far in Vermont. Send some snow so we can use our cross-country skis. Since it’s still January, a few beginning of the year questions. Do you use a traditional paper planner or are you strictly digital? I go digital for work, but am using a paper planner for my personal life this year so it can serve as a memory book/diary of sorts. Who doesn’t love flipping through a planner?

I hope you’re enjoying your weekend. Here are some links from around the internet.

• Win a movie theater in Maine. Really. (Would you up and move if you had the chance?)

• My favorite sort of Vermont news story. Watch out for those squirrels!

• Parking causes more driving. (Is anyone surprised?)

• Walmart is closing 269 stores this year, but planning to open 300 in 2017.

• A good piece about why not to vote for Trump.

• The politics of playgrounds.

•  I was psyched to find out that I’m not only one intrigued by the building form and cultural story of mini storage units.

• Bike lanes in Burlington!

Enjoy the day. Cheers!
