What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness.
~John Steinbeck
Spending time walking around neighborhoods is one of my favourite things. This is a wee collection of summer wanderings I hope you enjoy.
Also, thank you! dear readers for all the thoughtful comments and emails lately. It really brightens my day. It's been a bit silent around here and I promise there is a good reason... I landed a wonderful job at a university. Happy week to each of you.

An excellent interview: Andrew William Frederick
