Last night our Cub Scout pack got to learn about Veterans Day and participate in a flag retirement ceremony with members of the local American Legion. This was a really cool way for the boys to connect with a group of veterans and learn about what happens with old flags - something most of us don't think about.

This old girl and I have been partners since 2017. She's had her RAM maxed and an SSD installed in an effort to keep her running effectively, but today she was replaced with a much more efficient (don't let her hear that) HP Probook. My Pavillion will be retired to a seasonal job running Zwift and occasional duty for light personal bookkeeping tasks. Here's to new partners and enjoying an easier life! 🍾🍾🍾
