It’s Poetry Friday! Again! Where is the time going?! I had no plans to post today as I’m working on a travel article for Medium and it’s taking longer than I thought it would. But I saw a shout-out early this morning from Lou Piccolo who shared that two authors who followed her newsletter and…
We had friends over on Thursday night. A coworker of mine from the land trust we both worked at (and are now no longer working there) came for dinner with his wife. They are twenty-plus years younger than us but very enjoyable company. As it turned out, the date that worked for both us and…
