Three days can be squeezed into one, or rather, the activities of three days can.

This can be good. It can rush things.

At times gazing at the horizon imagining being on the horizon – that can be good.

You might choose emerald green and I’ll choose a rich crimson red.

New roads and new events connect. Somewhere.

Batteries live longer than peanuts.

Peaches get more votes than plums.

Airplanes win over rowing boats.

And, you win all the time.
