Good morning friend.
Wherever you are, I hope you are opening this letter, cozied up and taking a quiet moment for yourself.
Ellie and I walked to the beach a few days this past week to take in the sunrise and hear the surf pound the sand. The Harvest moon sat low as the sun came up to light up the sky and it was magical. The chill on the breeze sent welcomed shivers over my skin as Ellie got to run free on the dog beach.

Harvest moon greetings
My mom sent me a picture from her walk the same morning…

Blue sky morning and full moon in Arizona
The stark comparison really had me living in two places at once. Enjoying the salty air and yet dreaming of those quiet desert mornings. There is something intriguing about straddling that line between your present moment and the dream for the future; sometimes they come so close to one another and then drift away, only to come back again. Like a dance. Like the waves on the beach.
Where I am today is a place I once dreamed about too…and that gives my hopes for the next dream something real to stand on — proof.
Yesterday is but today's memory, and tomorrow is today's dream.
Until I am living in that desert dream, I will enjoy the gifts the ocean brings. I AM really lucky to be here surrounded by so much beauty. So with that I leave you with a question: Where's your quiet place, real or imagined?
Let me know, and I’ll meet you back here…
Same time next week.

Where things stand: the land is still on paper — no build yet, just the plan getting clearer, one quiet Sunday at a time
