We sneaked in one more fall day before the rain starts tomorrow, and it was a good one…lunch with the kids and their parents was exactly what the doctor recommended (and we saw the doctor JUST before lunch!) Goodbye sun. Keep in touch.

And Now, the Winter Ahead
We do the familiar things. The furniture and umbrellas come in off the deck, the porch. We make soup. We read and draw and cut the last Hydrangeas from the garden. We vote. We prune… But this winter is perilous. The Covid-19 virus is raging around the country and the cases are so numerous that […]
