I found a copy of The Witch of Blackbird Pond in a little free library – it was one of my favorite books as a kid. I went out for a walk right before sunset on Halloween night so I could see all the kids in their Halloween costumes, though there were just as many parents who were dressed up as kids. I took a picture of my favorite Halloween candy dispenser!
We finally got some rain today, it was such a treat to get to wear a raincoat. I headed over to Sausalito to get some practice in walking up and down hills and being out in the rain, I’ll be doing plenty of both of those things when I get to Wellington!
Lines from books I’ve been reading that hit home for me:
I wanted to be able to look about me and learn from what I saw, not from what I read.
Talk softer to yourself.
