Passing the explicit list of categories and links worked much faster than the first prompt which I asked it to just look at the Archive page and figure out what to do.
Ruthie Foster at the Dakota
We got to see Ruthie Foster play at the Dakota tonight. She did a solo set β just her and her guitar named Pearl. We hadn’t seen Foster play before but my Mom is a big fan of hers and I can see why. Her songs were amazing and she added so much with the stories behind them as well. I could have kept listening for another hour easily. What a great musician. πΆ

We all stopped at Breakout ND today in Bismarck to do the Gemini Quantum Quest game. The game is a split-start so Mazie and Tyler went to one place and Tammy and I to another.

Nice way to start the day at Youngblood Coffee in Fargo, ND.
