Today I add a new cap to the collection. It's my first day at the @nytimes. I'll miss my wonderful NC media family at the @newsobserver (and all my fellow alumni of @ChathamNR), plus my #ncpol press peers who are the best in the business. Reach me at lars.dolder@nytimes.com.

This was so fun to write. It's the first time I've dug into the N&O archive, and there were some treasures to be found. NC's new car maker has been a long time coming: newsobserver.com/news/business/…
My little dog just clamored to get in my lap. She was shivering when I picked her up. That's how I realized it's 56 degrees in my house. Stupid, fickle weather.
