Midway

Funny day. Usual routine, with late-breaking socializing. In early evening light I walked the few miles to the cafe/wine store, through some neighborhoods on the west side of Phinney Ridge that I hadn't seen before. Over leisurely glasses of wine, one friend told us that some mutual acquaintances with family and friends in Lebanon have taken in a young Lebanese student for the year. He was airlifted out recently, and transported to Seattle. Not sure about the details, but the couple is childless, and wanted to help post-war; or is it mid-war?
