May 21-27 (Durham)

May 20, 2026

Hey Durham 👋 It's been a stunning, summer-teaser of a week. You'll start to see events really pick up in the coming weeks as we head into festival season.

In past summers, I've had loose plans and taken more of a wing-it approach — and then suddenly blinked and it was August. Also, as much as I want to let go of routine, I’m finding the kids steel need some sense of structure in the summer months. So this year, I'm being a little more intentional about planning, while staying flexible for all the unplanned fun that always sneaks in.

I'm almost finished a day-trip guide that I've been using as a roadmap for our summer. I'll be sharing it here soon.

Have a lovely week! 🧡
