Last week Barry asked: What is a winter activity you're looking forward to?
AdamThe tranquility of the first snowy walk.
AdamAustin‘s look book is amazing! Very helpful when sharing with people.
HattieI’m excited for some winter baking (:
RogerSnow to get on the mountain for some nordic. XC skiing alongside some ice-skating. (We should definitely DIY a zamboni (is that how they're spelled?) for the ponds if it get's cold enough!

Barry's question

Who made your week a little easier?

A name and a sentence.

Type your name, write your note, press Add note. It shows up right here for everyone. Anything else for the letter goes here too: a thank you someone earned, something everyone should know before Friday, a question for the team.
