  • Silver Linings

    Although we are not yet finished with the season, the peak of our busy period has passed at last. Since April, we have had a fairly steady stream of visitors in and out of the house. Some stayed for just a night, or a few days, or an extended period of flexible time. Overall, it…

  • Taking the Higher Road

    One of my favorite quotes and sentiments I love from Michelle Obama is “When they go low, we go high”. During the still mystifying drama that occurred at the end of last year, I came across this quote on FB and saved it because it hit home in the moment and as part of my…

    Staying in the light when darkness threatens.
