Hello, Gundo 👋 

This is a “slower” week in terms of events… but there’s still plenty to do around town every single day. And we even included a few things to do if you’re ready to drive for a few minutes. (I know, I know. We try to avoid that too.)

Here’s what’s happening around the neighborhood this week.
