PSA as a former NPS worker.. the $80 America the Beautiful annual pass is good for 12 months, so if you don't like the 2026 design for *reasons*, purchasing a pass from a local office anytime in December 2025 will get you all the way through 2026.

It's a small thing, but I really appreciate the mics catching Christina Black shaking hands with her opponents so we could hear her addressing them by name when shaking hands.

A wonderful tribute to a titan of the game.
Colleen Jones asked me to interview her a couple of months ago during a chemotherapy appointment.
She told me to write one heck of a story. I hope I did her proud.
About always believing something wonderful is about to happen.
