Didn’t quite finish, perhaps the equivalent of one full bookshelf left. Ran out of boxes. Again. This week though. Then onto files and office supplies.

Again the night is quiet here. A distinguishing characteristic of this property is quiet after about 9 pm. A quality difficult to package, to sell as an amenity, but for this introvert, one of the key charms.

(Edwin Howland Blashfield (1848-1936) – Spring scattering stars)

The dogs are asleep. Kate’s asleep. Most of the books have gone into seclusion for the winter. This is a more minimalist version of the study, the basement than existed at the beginning of summer. It feels good.
