As we head into the holiday, I hope you’re able to slow down, share good food, and spend time with people who make you feel at home – whether that’s family, friends, neighbors or the community you’ve built here on the Peninsula. I’m especially grateful for you, our readers, and for everyone who takes the time to talk with us, send tips, ask hard questions and help us tell the stories of Redwood City.

Our small newsroom will be taking a short break from the daily newsletter on Thanksgiving and the Friday after, but we’ll keep an eye on any major breaking news and share updates as needed. We’ll be back in your inbox on Monday with fresh coverage.

With gratitude,
Michelle Iracheta
