It snowed here yesterday. Only a bit. But it was the official first snow of the season with all the magic and beauty that the first snow is expected to have.

So, summer is well over now.

Those warm weather months are so. very. easy to fill. We are in constant motion, it seems, what with park days and swimming and birthdays and BIG, GRAND living.

But now we are in that transitional space between summer and The Holidays.

These days are calmer and a good bit quieter. And introspective — yes, quite a bit more introspective.

Summer & heat & parks & all of that are busy, data & experience collecting times. But these days…these cooling, these ‘let’s stay home’ days are about integrating all those new experiences. And both are important.
