Yesterday I drove to Maine and got a cheap hotel room with a balcony right on the ocean. I brought a bottle of Prosecco and some potato chips and that’s what I had for dinner, sitting on my balcony. It was a celebration of the fact that this is possible again! It was a reopening for one. There will be other reopenings and adjustments and returns to normal, but this one was all mine.

Let me highlight the metaphor in the picture above, in case you’re not picking up what I’m putting down: there was a storm, but it’s passing. Too much? I thought that pictures of the sun coming up this morning would be a little on the nose.
