This Week in Spring - July 9th, 2019

Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I’ve just returned from Medellín, Columbia, yesterday, and am now in sunny Chicago for the epic SpringOne Tour Chicago event. And tomorrow, it’s off to Lima, Peru. It’s figuring to be quite a week!

As usual, we’ve got a lot to get to so let’s do!
