What a special thing to have such a place where generations before you have walked. My family is one that has moved generationally. The land where I am is rich with stories, stories I connect to, but they are not the stories of people in my actual family.
I don’t think it has to be about time. I think there are just people who are called to places. Who are *of* places in a way that can be hard to describe. I think there is more to it than familiarity or family. I think it’s magnificent that you have places that you can be from/be of. Sometimes it’s magical to be in this painful world. You can hold the beauty of life and the tragedy of life all in one.
That is truly beautiful Jenn and an enviable place to be so well known... and for so long too!🙏🏽🍂
I always hope the trees know we care. It always sounds so woo woo, but it’s nice to know you’re appreciated and I hope somehow they all know we do.

That is true. I knew the very first time that I stepped foot in San Francisco that it was my soulmate place. I'm lucky to have found it.
So beautiful.
Thank you for saying so!
Ah, I love this, the observations you note are wonderful, as is that deep connection to the land. Thank you for sharing it with me (and everyone!).
