We ARE restless. We Americans don't like to be told what to do and what not to do. Witness masked gunmen demanding the right to....not wear masks! But then I sat down and finished The Dressmakers Gift-the latest of a long line of books I've been reading with a similar theme-and I realize what a spoiled, petulant bunch we are! So I'll take your advice. Get out there and enjoy nature. I find it very soothing. Hope all is well with you and Tom.

Take it slow.
