Good morning and happy Monday from the Pacific Northwest! Haven't seen this in a while, huh? This is both a return and celebration newsletter! About three years ago, the very first newsletter was written and ever since then, I've continuously written about Civ for around roughly a year.

I'll explain more after we get through a b...
