Just a taste of what’s popping up. In case you were looking for a prompt.

1. This shift in my wilderness destinations, from mountains to ocean. When did that happen?
2. The ripening of peaches spurs trips to our favorite pick-your-own orchard a half-hour to our north. More trips will follow for apples.
3. Maybe I really am an “advocate of living-up-the-world-in-your-own-village,” as one comment chimed.
4. I do like the concept of transitioning, rather than progressing, with all of its assumptions.
5. Overheard at Walden Pond: “No, they won’t even get in a car anymore. They ride their bikes everywhere.”
6. The Wiggly Bridge for hikers beside the York River. One way to get over high tide.
7. Home Depot workers call their pesticide section the Wall of Death.
8. So many field notes from spiritual aspiration and practice springing from a muse of fire. The one that’s sometimes scorched me.
9. My life as a failure. There’s no autobiographical novel to be written on my last 30 years.
10. A bumper sticker I’d like to create: I’D RATHER BE READING.
