I haven't checked the record books, but August seemed more fall than summer this year, with cooler days and nights outpacing the hot ones. It was a summer of change in myriad ways, many of which I'm still processing. Things I know for sure at this point: I like joy more than doom, happiness more than rage, hope more than despair, and WE ARE NOT GOING BACK. A harbinger. This tree was the first on our street to turn orange last year, but only precisely half the tree. Today it's already in full-on fall mode, so here we go. ** What we did this summer in lieu of a vacation was take day trips. I'll tell you a little about those, complete with Kim's photos, in a future post, hopefully soon. The thing I want most to do these days is write, but it mostly isn't happening. Too much still hangs in the balance and I can't focus. But HOPE is holding its spot in the universe and life is still the place to be. Back with "travel" pics ASAP. Meanwhile, I don't like to lose touch with you... Comment Like You can also reply to this email to leave a comment.
