Today I went out to mail a letter, walking through the woods, like I did the day I dropped a card by a pine tree. It was much warmer today, but the path through the woods was still covered with ice. If I had been wearing ice skates, I could have sped along it, my own tiny Rideau Canal.

On the way back from the post office, the clouds were thickening and the wind picked up, and I worried about trees falling on me. I never used to worry about this in the woods, but winds that bring down trees are much more common now. At home, I picked up mail from our postbox... and there was this postcard:



It's from [personal profile] minoanmiss --she sent it for me to share with the pine tree.

Isn't that great?

Next time I walk that route, I promise I will! Thank you, MM!

It has been decades since I lived anywhere where ice outside a freezer was even conceivable, so I am grateful for the detail!

Good luck! No harm in starting to look around and make plans now, though opportunities in Timor Leste may have to wait util Southeast Asian countries are convinced that opening up a bit more won't lead to EU/UK/US levels of COVID deaths.
