/* =============================================
   about.css — the About page (2.7.2, Ben, 2 November 2026; canvas board "About Us — copy")
   =============================================
   views/about.php. Loaded on the About page only. Colours from the site's tokens: the posts blue
   (--journal-*), the reviews green (--reviews-mid), the text gold (--mwd-gold-dark) and the page
   background (--page-bg). Headings are the site's Quicksand (main.css).

   THE ROUTES (about.js): each year card's map draws its route through a mask (components/map_view.php
   'route'). With JavaScript the mask's line starts hidden (dashoffset 1 of pathLength 1) and draws in
   when the card scrolls into view (.is-drawn); with no JavaScript, or reduced motion, it is all there. */
