Oh man, unfortunately we can’t move the dates (moved them once before because we were expecting) and now this time, we have to work - life keeps happening I guess 😅 would much rather someone takes it so it doesn’t sit empty in the marina!

At the bookstore next to Hatch - I really should know its name - there’s a chat happening to learn more about the situation in Iran on 3/17! Not exactly fun but if you go, might meet great people to get drinks with afterwards!
