Newlin's 3 a.m. Diary: Retrograde Mercury

I wouldn’t say I’m one of those people who are really invested in astrology and believe in horoscopes, but it has always interested me.

Literally Speaking: "Autumn"

"The morns are meeker than they were,The nuts are getting brown;The berry's cheek is plumper,The rose is out of town.The maple wears a gayer scarf,The field a scarlet gown.Lest I should be old-fashioned,I'll put a trinket on.""Autumn," by Emily DickinsonA few days ago we had one of the coolest, sweetest days in the valley.
