Good morning, Member

Happy Friday, dear GrayViners! Have you got anything fun lined up this weekend? Whatever it may be, I hope it brings you something you love—whether that’s family time, a cozy afternoon, or just a little treat for yourself. As for me, I’ll be off to the playground with my nephew, and I’m secretly hoping I can still squeeze into the swings! It got me wondering: When you were a kid, did you make a beeline for the swings, or did the slides steal your heart? Share your childhood favorite with us!

The answer is… a bee! 🐝 See if you’re in our winners list!
