Anniversary

Exactly one year ago we signed paperwork and shook hands and received in exchange the key to our new home in Newberg. We’ve now experienced the full cycle of the seasons. We’ve learned our way around; we’ve made friends. Now we understand the routine of this place, and in our second year I suspect we will know more deeply.

This June is not a replay of our first June a year ago. This June is wetter, cooler, making her way toward July still dressed in April’s gear. The seasons cycle, but as each month takes its turn on stage, the performance is different, unique. Now that we’ve seen the show all the way through once, we will relish the nuances of each performance to come.
