/* ============================================================================
   US Retirement Life — "Milestones" (usrl-theme 1.0.0, 2026-10-07)
   Loads after theme-variables.css and main.css. All site styling lives here.
   A retirement guide organised by age, in "Golden hour" (1.1.0): cream ground,
   pale gold panels, terracotta (#A8431C) as the one link/button hue, gold suns
   on the timeline (fill only); Epilogue headlines
   over Merriweather body; photos in their own 8px frames, image-left rows.
   No shadows, no text on photographs.
