Retired journalist, recovering news junkie, meditator and Good Trouble maker

I'm the PNW bureau chief at The New York Times. Send me story ideas, complaints, venting, cute dog pics. I may also comment on the Yankees and the Tar Heels, but always in a measured tone.

Retired education reporter in the Charlotte, NC, region. Ready to ditch X and try this.

We’ll make it fine if the weather holds. But if the weather holds, we’ll have missed the point. That’s where I need to go
