So, I felt like it was time to pop in and say, “Hi.”

I haven’t posted much in the last several weeks because it hasn’t felt right. There’s been so many important things happening in the country and community that it felt trivial to post anything at all.

Instead, I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on my own white privilege, listening and learning – and donating and supporting offline. A huge thank you to everyone sharing resources that help people like me contribute and help, as well as learn and grow. This moment our country is having right now IS important and I care deeply about the change that’s happening around me.

I’m getting back to posting soon because I miss it.

I want you to understand that my choosing to post about “Lake Reports” and pretty photos of my house, cabin and gardens does not mean the world is “back to normal” again. It just means that I miss the community here on IG and the blog, and I want to share projects with you. I plan on muting myself anytime I feel like it makes sense for other voices to be heard.
