This past week the crispness of winter has settled in, we think. We remember the cozy joys of the snug world we call indoors, and home projects take over. Out walking, we see our own breath in the air and appreciate what it means to be alive. The days are growing longer and sunset, not starlight, becomes the sky’s accompaniment to the drive home from work.
