Episode 108, Thursday Live: Yarn Stories

Hi. I’m late in listening to the Thursday show, but my favorite days in August when I am pickling and have the smell of mustard pickles in the whole house. I so enjoy your websites. Thank you. I’m from West Kelowna, BC.

I love August , my oldest son was born in August and he will be married in Nova Scotia this year. August brings fresh corn and glorious dahlias…….Bring it on….

The beginning of the change of seasons…..transitioning from one to another.
Sunsets in the evening – sitting on the porch, wrapped in a blanket….savoring the moment.
The sound that crickets make…
Peacefulness.

I know it is past time, but I had to add my live for the smell of August. Sometimes it shows up early to the party or there is a flash of recognition somewhere else in the year, like my brain needs to remind me of the cool breezes and sunshine surrounded by gold and green and crisp blue skies. The smell, I think…is mown grass and ripening fruit, heated garden paths and the faintest beginnings of leaves that are wearing out. There is something comforting and exhilarating to it. I love August as I mark it as the start of the best season.

See you in Sept! Have a nice summer from Medicine Hat, Alberta.
Because of the time difference I always seem to miss it Live !
