We&#8217;re not casino or gambling people, but very much enjoyed some time away in a nice hotel room!<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>&#x1f680; Very busy on both the <a href=\"https:\/\/norwescon.org\">Norwescon<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/seattlein2025.org\">Seattle Worldcon 2025<\/a> front, with the first just a couple weeks away, and the other further out but with behind-the-scenes stuff helping with digital accessibility matters.
