Jeanne, I so enjoyed this post about the farm lingo (a seriously busy language). I, too, became more aware of our beautiful Earth during the forced meditation of Covid, followed by reading Ed Yong's extraordinary book, An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us. I've ordered Amy Tang's chronicle on birds. I am excited to note her giant leap from novelist to this kind of focus. Isn't it astonishing how,--f we're lucky--we can entertain new adventures and arrive at new understandings.

Jeannie, I guess I haven’t fully read your posts in the past. I had no idea that you guys purchased a farm in the Midwest! What an exciting adventure and how lucky you are to be able to do something like that. I’ll keep reading to find out more! In the meantime, just living here in Westerly raising my four girls. Ruby just came home from her first year at Saint Andrews, Piper is finishing her junior year at Choate, and Sadie will be starting at as a freshman there. Ginger will be a seventh grader in Pine Point. Hope it all is well with your family! Alison Cameron
