Happy Tuesday! Chelsea here.

I can't believe it's already February. To be honest, it sort of snuck up on me yesterday and I felt a little unprepared for it. I always tend to think of February as being the end of winter, but with the weather right now, I think we can all agree that's wishful thinking. While we're all snuggled up avoiding going outside into the frozen wasteland that is Columbus, let's treat ourselves to a nostalgic history lesson.

CAPA is using some recently allocated funds to do some much-needed repairs and upgrade to the historic Ohio Theatre. It's already so beautiful so I can't imagine how gorgeous it will be when they're finished! Luckily, we won't have to wait too long to find out.

, the framing with vaccination right now is so important: "

The news about the vaccines continues to be excellent — and the public discussion of it continues to be more negative than the facts warrant. Here’s the key fact: All five vaccines with public results have eliminated Covid-19 deaths.
