A good place to sit


At Ramble's End, in the study, sitting by the wood stove.  This is a good place.  We spend a lot of evenings sitting here quietly.  This has become my spot, though I do switch it up and sit next to Trevor on the couch sometimes.  I've come to realise that Trevor and I are very quiet people, which would surprise a lot of people who know that I'm a chatterbox.

This is also a room full of books, which is probably why we spend so much time in here: two sets of Encyclopaedia Brittanica, all my Calvin & Hobbes, books on gardening, writing, philosophy, etc.  Pipes and cigar boxes galore, along with all the accoutrements for the stove.

Today is All Souls' Day.  This room has a soul.  I'm thankful for what I have.
