I often wake about 3 am and get up for a while. Settle down in the recliner with a cup of tea and pull up the day's Letter. I work through it and the comments, absorbed for an hour or two while the cat sleeps in my lap. So much to think about. The community here is at least as important to me as your writing. Complimentary. So much to reflect upon. Then once a week there is a rest. A beautiful picture to gaze at, gentle comments of caring and support. I read every one, heart quite a few. As a kid, I never understood that imposed day of rest each week, but here it seems exactly right. Thank you Heather and Buddy and community.
In the olden days before artificial light, apparently people used to normally wake up in the middle of the night for a few hours, and some still do. My late mother used to read for several hours in the middle of the night while my father slept beside her.
I love this, fellow Vermonter, thank you! I feel the same. It was a very beautiful day and how lovely that HCR chose R&R and Buddy gave us a superb view of the sky.
This has become an important part of my online community. I am frequently amazed by the depth and breadth of experiences that are reflected here. Thanks for letting me be a part of it!
Fellow Vermonter here... I am often up in the middle of the night. I look forward to Heather‘s note somewhere mid- night..I often read and think at that time also. Northwest Vermont here

Yes, that's a great time to be up when there is little or nothing to distract one from thinking, reading, writing and even walking .

Love this Becky. ✨
I love that image of you at 3AM in your recliner with your tea and the cat on your lap while you read the letter.
