We are going to enroll in the Trusted Traveler Global Entry program. Tina, thanks for mentioning it. It makes things more convenient in general. It also means that they have already checked you out, so they are less likely to ruin your day. Richard, you might consider this. And thanks for the reassurances from Europe. Passions are running very high in the U.S. Friendships are unraveling. People are acting as though they might be arrested tomorrow for disagreeing with those currently in power--or that their neighbors should be. A 24-hour news cycle and a toxic social media atmosphere that magnifies the worst in people just throws gasoline on the fire. I admit, I've been affected by all that. I'm not going to exercise prior restraint on myself. Our U.S. passports are valid. If it's legal and safe for us to travel, and we want to, we're going to. --Peter
