Good morning!
Between MLK Day and the Walk for Peace moving through the city, there’s a strong thread of reflection this week. Whether you’re looking for something meaningful or just trying to find an excuse to leave the house, we’ve got you.
Trying to catch the Walk for Peace? Arrival time is subject to change, but looks like 5 PM today at Grandover. See the live tracker here. Also, follow their Facebook for the most up-to-date info.
We’ll leave the rest for your scroll, but first a question:
When you have an extended weekend, what's your default GSO plan?
Scroll time.
What’s going on, Greensboro?
