In a word, it was glorious. In many more words, I wrote about it here on the blog I write for. Lane 8 has his finger on the pulse of something important, something humane, something connected. It's got me thinking about leaving my phone at home more, or creating a separation between my phone and the activities I want to be more present for, rather...
