The last two nights we’ve watched Pride and Prejudice and Little Women as a family. Such great movies! I remember in high school doing everything I could to not read Jane Austin. I was such a dork.

This is heartbreaking. Another class of heroes, about to be thrown into the thick of a fight they shouldn’t have to be in. www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/…
A Picnic in the Park
Since COVID-19 turned our world upside down, many of the things that were very normal have now become things we have to take great care in doing. Two of my kids have birthdays in July. In years past their birthday parties were at our community pool with a large group of friends and a stack of pizzas to share. This year those kinds of parties aren’t what we want to do.
Spent the last week or so porting my website from Hugo back to WordPress with a static site deploy. It’s been a fun challenge and I love that I can have the convenience of the WordPress backend with the speed and security of a static site on Netlify. adamtervort.com

Baseball is built on hope
You know what I love about baseball? It’s a game of hope. Why did I keep watching when my team is down by 7 runs in the 5th inning? Because anything can happen. Now it’s the middle of the seventh and we’ve scored three runs. Will we win? Probably not. Will it be fun to watch them try? Absolutely! Think of it: baseball is a game where successful hitters fail two out of three times.

Two days a row with baseball. I’m a happy guy. Here’s my favorite quote on the Royals win today:
The Royals won their first game of the season. It’s not ideal that it happened so late in the year but they’re currently tied for first place in the division and it’s hard to ask for much more than that.

The MLB season opens today. The Royals play their first game tomorrow. I’m so happy😁⚾️🙌
