Today's stories follow three villagers through a summer day: "Magic Words" starts with a morning walk to town, enjoying the world's subtle signs. At "The Hardware Store," we explore nuts, bolts, plants, and tools, pondering creative potential. Finally, "Joyride" takes us into the evening, windows down, music up, embracing the freedom of the open road.

Today's stories begin at the Village's beloved Inn, where we chase morning mist, row on the lake among swans in "The Lake at the Inn," followed by a relaxing barefoot stroll and a nap in "From the Hammock." We then journey across town to witness a friend preparing a care package to uplift spirits and alleviate homesickness.

Finally, we’ll apply the finishing coat of varnish and consider all we have learned along the way in the Lady in the Painting.

Our stories today highlight some of the loveliest simple pleasures of the spring. A walk, a road trip, a day in the garden. We’ll start with one of my all-time favorite stories and one that inspired me to write a whole book (coming soon!). It’s called Old Houses and if you’ve ever walked through a neighborhood and wondered about the stories of the houses you see, the people who have lived there, it is for you. Then we’ll load up the car and head out to The Hideaway for some time at the Cabin. Finally, we’ll gather our trowels and seed packets and pace out the garden in Spring at the Allotment.
