Thank you, Maureen, that means a lot. I think many of us are craving exactly that kind of quiet right now. I’m with you on the hope for the new year: more possibility, more wonder, and more of us pulling in the same direction. Here’s to finding our way together, step by step. -Woodrow

Linda, I remember The Saturday Evening Post during its heyday, when I was knee high to a grasshopper. I loved the Norman Rockwell covers, and it was a family tradition to enjoy it together. I do remember hearing about Farm Talk, but I think that one was more focused on agriculture in the Midwest, and we didn’t live in that part of the country. -Woodrow

Not sure what you are referring to, Linda. Even so, you will find that I’m hard to offend these days. Life’s too short. -Woodrow

Thank you, Woodrow, Substack is having glitches still! I apologize for any inconvenience, to you, I have to text above the line on my phone! Have you ever read the Saturday Evening Post? I read the little news paper called Farm talk news. There is quiet today, I am glad for friends such as yourself! You write extremely well and positive news!

Thank you, Woodrow, for this "quiet pause" that allows us to silence the noise and shut out the ugliness we see too much around us. May the coming new year reopen us to possibilities, to the awe and wonder in our world, and to belief that it is when we work together that we find our common way.
