It was quiet on the Med Mart front for a while; last we heard there was arguing over the change in plans from MMPI regarding where it would be located.  I liked the first site choice better all along.   I don’t think you have to be a staunch preservationist to not want Public Hall torn [...]

Took some time to think about the day before posting.  It was certainly a jam-packed day, starting before 8am with some delightful conversations.  Meeting interesting people and reconnecting with old friends at a summit made it worthwhile to be there so early in the day.
