A very pleasant relaxed interlude for us; we both enjoyed it thoroughly; listening to the late summer wind in the tree's foliage trying to determine why it had a "late summer" sound. B— thought because the leaves were drier than in Early Summer; — listening to the various insects; the little trip to the swampy patch in the field to the South; with its profusion of golden rod and light blue-violet asters.
