Une Envie de Sel

 What to do on a chilly day in January, but go exploring some old haunts from the past!

Here, the famed Maverick concert hall, where my piano-prodigy of an aunt played when I was small, where we spent so many languid summer afternoons listening to classical music in the dappled shade of the forest.

 Interesting to stomp around here in the deep snow, my mother and I, when all the doors are locked and the benches drawn in for the winter, and not a track but our own footsteps in the blanket of white that shrouds the winter woods.

 A visit home is a time for happy rememberings...

Then a winding drive home past the Ashokan reservoir, with the baby falling asleep in her car seat.
