I forwarded this to my parents, who are staying in in the cold instead of going to the dining hall for meals. I have a brother in Colorado right now, a sister in Kansas (also canceling travel), and our Massachusetts overnights in the teens are sounding balmy. I just finished Tom Lake, which I curled into like Mr. Mole in his den for the winter. Oh, those metal ice cube trays. Oh the foxtrotting mists. Oh people keeping warm enough on this beloved mess of a warming planet.
May you stay warm and safe. It's cold up here in New Jersey, but not nearly as cold as it has been. I'm still out there with the birds and barreling down trails on my bike. Waiting for snow!
“I felt like one of those old-fashioned metal ice-cube trays that operate with a latch like an old-fashioned ice-box: I was cracklingly cold all the way through.” ❤️👏
Here’s something uncanny, Elizabeth. In my book I just finished writing is the sentence, “I’ve been thinking about Jack London lately.” Plus it’s 24 degrees here…….
