Hello all -

My neighbor, Krissi, found this article yesterday. It’s really good. And it 
mentions, Temescal commons cohousing in California waaaay at the end. 

You may know David Brooks from the PBS NewsHour as someone who does commentary 
as the conservative voice on national politics along with Mark Sheilds, The 
liberal voice.

However, Brooks has written extensively on community and collaborative living.  
He embraced the conservatism of the Republicans, but as his thinking has 
evolved and the Republican Party has transmorphed into something else, he now 
declares himself as an independent. 

Regardless of how he is labeled this article is a work of art and deep 
conviction.  Right at the end he describes a community he became involved with 
here in Washington DC. I have heard him speak about this experience. He was and 
is deeply moved by The bonds of kinship.

A little lobbying from me: we should have Brooks as our keynote speaker at the 
next national CohoUS national conference in 2021. :-)
