Grandfather entered easily tonight and kept us warm and glowing while the words danced through the flames of my mind and carried me to the in between, then to be returned by the swirling summer wind wiggling the wing flap door to the now.

We are coming up to Storynight next week. This is a note to let you know that although I am traveling there will be a story told by my student Brian Rohr. As usual the fire will start around 6:30 and the story around 7:30. I hope you can make it and know that I will be there in heart and spirit.
Blessings
