Hi, I moved from the mid-west to Maine thirty years ago, right after graduating from college. Maine has been a balm to my fighting, restless, often overwhelmed heart. This is where I am growing up, in the true sense of the phrase. This blog is where I'll document how this place both challenges and grounds me. You will see images of how Maine stuns in its quiet, craggy, tree-shrouded glory; read about the people who are important in my life; and how place and people can be a source of change and strength.
