Serenity in the Suburbs

By Esmé Harbour, September 16, 2020

Beno reached out to me a few months ago after tiring of his central downtown location. Protests had become a nightly occurrence right outside his apartment door. No matter one’s political or social views, it’s easy to see how a nightly ritual of chanting, marching, and tear gas could grow old quickly. After just a short time looking we found a great townhome in the burbs, far from the protests (but close to Beno’s work). Now he and his pup will be able to enjoy some much deserved serenity in the suburbs!!
