Thank you so much for staying in touch here, via the airwaves, at parties and events, or simply through occasional fond (or fraught) thoughts! Life is enormously challenging and complicated, yet I am borne up by our shared curiosity, honesty and goodwill. I never take it, or our time together, for granted. I'm humbled to have been granted the chance to play a tiny part in so many wonderful lives. Enjoy this slight pause in the madness of modern life. Skip the tech as much as possible. Read a book, call yr mates, love yr kin, look at the sky, walk, swim and play music. Catch you again (all too) soon xo An impossible oasis of peace and beauty transpired between coastal infernos & mass murder here at home. I am barely beginning to process the traumas of the latter. It will take time. Until then, I hope you'll pardon me for choosing to dwell in the Pacific for this edition. I'd like to share this salve.
