Doors are hung. Boxes are slowly being unpacked. Furniture decisions need to be made, but not right now. Leaves are falling. Geese are flying overhead.
Yesterday, we saw our first resident salamander. Small and brown and fabulous.
We are ready for life to slow to a calm wonder. We are ready to sit.
Wood needs to be gathered. Wood needs to be chopped. Fires built. We will sit and watch the storms.
