One of those for us? 

Frequent ailments. 

Sudden, unexplained illnesses.

Night sky

Night sky. Stars lost in the city’s loud light.

Raised in a large urban center, I look back on my childhood. And remember something different.

Limited electricity. Unpredictable outages. 

Frequent darkness in the evenings.  

And stars.

Anticipate

Fog hugs the ground as it flows. From the Pacific Ocean. Over mountains.  

Into Marin County.

The year we live there, I anticipate this view. Each morning. As I drive the kids to school. 

Spectacular beauty.
