Nice work collecting all this! I’m pleasantly surprised by the accessibility — it’s way better than I expected, and bodes well for the 20s/30s Jewish population. Nice work collecting all this!

Sometimes I secretly think that the reason there's two days of Rosh and two Seders is so that we can have one with each family. Even before I had to balance my preferences with my partner, my liturgical tastes didn't necessarily jibe with that of my parents. It's great to see that this year even more local synagogues are being accommodating to "non-members." Even just a few years ago this was not the case. That is what it’s about.

I get to check out a new shul - B'nai Emet - which is neat, and a new way to experience this season of renewal. It will be a balance though - I'll be away from my family for half of the holiday, but isn't that what growing up and meeting a significant other is about anyway? Learning to balance the family you grew up in with the world you are creating for yourself?
