"What's new is old,
what's old is gone
You're pushed up to the edge
So put your wingsuit on.”
-Anastasio/Fishman/Gordon/McConnell
As you know, last week we had 100 degree temps and then within hours, falling ash from Colorado wildfires was replaced by a falling snow. The wet and heavy snow stuck to still full green leaves and large branches snapped and fell to the ground. The crash waking us from our slumber was rather unsettling. It’s not the first time this year we’ve been jostled and made uneasy. We’re reminded how quickly things can change. How things can break. How things can go in a different direction than we want. How do we handle this? Can we pick ourselves up and dust ourselves off? How do we do that? Nature has provided us a wonderful escape this summer with camping in the woods more than ever before. Getting into nature and tuning out has a been valuable reset tool and I trust you’ve been able to find yours.
We're just a few days away from the Autumnal Equinox. This too feels like a good time to recalibrate. I look forward again to my favorite trout hunting season. It’s usually a quiet time of the year to slow down and reflect on all that we have to be grateful for. Many have lost something or someone this year but I hope you’re reminded of what you do have. I’m very grateful for such a good community Kristin and I have and we appreciate your friendship. May you find solace this fall. And please go out and VOTE!
In good vibes,
HATCH
