I am delightfully lost in the beauty of it all as I write to you, Rebecca. Your essay, your beautiful house, the gift you are giving to our planet, the journey you and your sweetie took to make this all a reality, the encouragement and example you share with friends, neighbors…everyone.

The space inside and outside is incredible. I also have to say that I cannot stop admiring the light fixtures around the kitchen. Plus I am amazed at how it all works. Solar. Propane. Wowzers.

Now re the 70th birthday. Happy Belated, my friend. I have an important question to ask…by any chance are those candles sitting on top of a butter tart? Whatever it is, it looks delish. ⭐️⭐️🎂🎂🎂🥰
