The Walk
Walking around our community, I have noticed a much greater number of fences that have gone up.

We’ve Been Delivered
Thanksgiving usually gets confined to that brief window between Halloween and Christmas. With it, we think of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and an abundance of food that everyone at least satiated and most likely a bit stuffed. The holiday invites us to reflect upon our thankfulness. At my parents’ home last year, my niece invitedContinue reading “We’ve Been Delivered”
