In today's newsletter, a look at ArtPrize 2022, we chat about the worst winters we've seen in Michigan and a guide to tomorrow's Michigan football game. |
One last weekend of summer is ahead of us. And it looks pretty much perfect. |
I mention winter below in today's newsletter, but I don't really want to think about it yet. As you might recall, I recently explained my intense love for summer. I am one of those people.
I was so happy to hear what the forecast is looking like for this one last summer weekend. Mark Torregrossa tells us the temps will be in the 80s and we only have a little rain popping in. There will be plenty of chances to spend time outdoors and enjoy the end of summer.
Next week at this time, it will officially be autumn. I'll pop on an orange sweater and drink some chai. I'm a team player. I promise.
