I continued teaching, designed and built homes and interiors, reworking pictures and writing into the form of what they apparently were, to be, cooking. My own father loved tennis, cooking, and a useful book. The important part of life, has been staying at home with the kids, helping them with their projects, out of care, the kindness of that being the gift of time.
Art and writing were always around for that.
"To the land vaguely realizing westward,
But still unstoried, artless, unenhanced,
Such as she was, such as she would become."
