4th saturday gaming is, unsurprisingly, cancelled again. I hope you are all doing well. Are you? Is anyone reading this? What can I do to help?

Hello John. Thank you for keeping the light on! We are doing well. Had another surgery (outpatient) yesterday obliquely related to the previous one. Never underestimate the effectiveness of fentanyl! Missing gaming in almost all its forms, although Vassal and Roll20 work well in the interim. As far as what you can do to help - just keep doing what you are doing, maintaining hope that some normalcy will emerge on the other side of this mess. Thank you again!

Hey John! Didn't even think to check here as I assumed gaming will be cancelled UFN, but yes I am here. Playing games at home with kids and Suzie (Scrabble, Villagers, Fantastic Factories, Wingspan, MtG, Patchwork). Trying to introduce at least one new game/week. I also picked up a few used games from a FB seller: Struggle of Empires, Princes of the Renaissance; and Vinci (which I like better than Small World). I have an account on BGA but haven't played any games there yet. I have been playing weekly Agricola on the iOS with some geographically distant friends and we all just got the Castles of Burgundy app, so we might switch to that as we've probably played 50-75 games of Agricola (not all during the pandemic, but over the last several years). I am working mostly from home, but have to go in about once per week. Boys are getting very good at Fortnite. Distance Learning in Fairfax County is a complete cluster. I've been cooking a lot.

Phil,
When this is all over... i’ve been waiting for years for someone to express an interest in playing Princes of the Renaissance- loved the game when it first came out. So we’ll play.
