Excerpt:

I’ll be on the East Coast until July 12, so I probably won’t be posting or responding to email until then.

Perfect Day

Excerpt:

Today was fabulous, weather-wise. A light, dry breeze; a bright, warm sun (74°, not blazing); scattered clouds for random patches of shade. Not humid in the least. An island of a day, converging at the exact sweet spot of comfort. The sheer perfection of it…
