Thank you Lia - as ever you have curated the images and observations into such a beautiful evocation of the season. Like a many faceted jewel - or a rich symphony ! I love the way each individual’s voice brings a unique strand which you weave into such such a gorgeous thing. Bless you for the idea, intention and now the monthly joy you bring us!
