I donโ€™t know the specific history of this building, but other federal style buildings like this are typically 175-200 years old.

Iโ€™ve got that one, too.
I should have included Thurberโ€™s letters too. Both collections include letters to each other.

Bittersweet nightshade, invasive and mildly toxic to humans and other animals, can be beguiling and hard to resist.

Bob, you are kind to attribute how compelling the visual beauty of the natural world can be to some artistry of mine.
I just keep telling myself โ€œLook at the world until you see it.โ€
Itโ€™s there, waiting for our eyes to open to it. I think the required skills are just patience and presence.

Iโ€™m selling a house and buying a house back in my home territory. Lots of moving parts, but T.โ€™s lake house will be about 15 minutes away from me rather that 3 hours - a refuge from the chaos. Iโ€™m hoping to be settled in sometime in July. (If the deal goes through.)
