Stopped in the barn on the Baker Farm. Sat in the dry meadow-hay, where the mice nest. To sit there, rustling the hay, just beyond reach of the rain while the storm roars without, it suggests an inexpressible dry stillness, the quiet of the haymow on a rainy day; such stacks of quiet and undisturbed thought, when there is not even a cricket to stir in the hay, but all without is wet and tumultuous, and all within is dry and quiet. Oh, what reams of thought one might have here! The crackling of the hay makes silence audible. It is so deep a bed, it makes one dream to sit on it, to think of it.
– April 19, 1852 Henry David Thoreau, Age 34
Rain on leaves. Rain on water. Rain on roof.
Heaven sent. Life giving. Spring rains…
Trees, grass, flowers…
Spring rains… gardens, fruits, vegetables.
Then rivers, ponds, lakes, and eventually the sea.

Our extended ninety days, for a small business, is almost unheard of. Truth is, we shop for gifts too, and rather than scrambling at the last minute and feeling the tension of time, we like this more relaxed approach. We wish everyone did something like this… it would be a kinder, gentler world.
