Goodbye 2021

In many ways this year has been a repeat of 2020. We're into the second year of the pandemic and facing a fourth (fifth? sixth?) wave of COVID. I have managed a few West Coast trips, visiting LA, Seattle and San Francisco. We stayed close to home this summer for a family vacation to Virginia's Eastern Shore, and visited family in Columbia, South Carolina. Otherwise, we've spent a lot of time in our home neighborhood. A lot. So much time in the house.

Traditionally, I've used this post to reflect back on top photos, places visited during the year or cool experiences. While I did manage some fun adventures with great company, this year was a little different. I'm grateful that the kids were able to go back to in-person school, and we've largely stayed healthy. I missed seeing friends and colleagues in our offices around the world, and I'm still spending too much time on Zoom, but there's hope for in-person meetings and international travel in 2022.

I'll wrap up this post with a collection of some of my favorite photos from 2021.
