This past Thursday and Friday, Leadership Rhode Island held its retreat for the 2025 Phi II class. The facilitation team was top-notch, we had a beautiful meeting location, and the comradery built was invigorating.

where does the new york times even find these people
A screenshot of a New York Times update that says: In Grand Central Terminal, Leon Chang, 26, of Brooklyn, said he had not heard of congestion pricing and asked what it was. When explained it was a toll for cars entering Manhattan, he then asked “What do you mean? What is a car?” Walking outside, we showed him a vehicle parked on the street. He gently touched the hood of the car. “You wish to forbid these majestic beasts from entering the city,” he said in a wistful tone. “It is a folly of man. The desire to tame the world around us.”

Cool day at the beach today. Grabbed some rocks to polish and ran into a dozen Brants in the fog. Thought they were Seals, they were so loud and vocal.

It’s wet, cold, and sleety here in New England today. Got a special visitor though! What I believe is a juvenile BlueJay. Saw the markings when they flew away. #birder #birds
