Just in from weeding, not having registered solstice. So glad to add this to the gratitude list.

And thank you for a new word to look up: "a quiet psithurism, just straddling the line between music and noise." Dictionary.com

And . . . "Terwilliger bunts one." I am now the grandmother of a baseball kiddo and it's delightful to recall again what caught A.D.'s mother's ear and slipped into the family dialect.

I am loving these Notes!

Isn't that great? Maybe you and your grand will land on your own similar family joke.

This was wonderful to read in the way that makes me want to go outside and do the same. Generative - the best kind of art. Glad you get to enjoy this time!

Thank you! You were fondly remembered as my housemates and I were talking about last year's Glen.

I do love these posts, Laura. That lightning bug sighting and the peony taking its time made me smile.

Thank you! Those northern peonies were shyer than Pittsburgh peonies. But several bloomed fully on my last morning there.

Reading this took the weight off my shoulders and made me smile. I will forever be a fan of your beautiful writing, and you.
