I have now caught up with your writing in this journal. Always such a pleasure as I feel connected to you when I read your writing and also because it is such a beauty of word painting.

And whatindeed does make the ginko all drop their leaves in unison?
Thank yo for continuing to write and to let me (us) read it.
