Maya has been on a solo road trip through the midwest for the last week. She is pictured here in Kentucky with her second cousin, Charlie (Jeanine’s niece’s daughter). We had hoped to meet her when we traveled to Indianapolis for her uncle’s wedding last year. Unfortunately, Covid intervened and we missed that opportunity. Maya will travel to Chicago next to meet up with her college roommate, Lauren, and the two will drive back to Boston together.

I spent a good part of the day with Kyle working on his basement renovation project. We removed the oil-fired furnace, relocated the fuel oil tank, and began the installation of a new exterior door to the garage. Note to Kyle: Please send your father some of the photos you took.
