Right now at our house we are doing our Summer reading. Both of the kids have a list of books that they need to get through before school starts (next month!).

Tonight we read Miss Rumphius. As a child Great-aunt Alice Rumphius resolved that when she grew up she would go to faraway places, live by the sea in her old age, and do something to make the world more beautiful--and she does all those things, the last being the most difficult of all.

Sounds like a pretty good life plan, really.

• See Faraway Places


• Live Near the Sea


• Make the World More Beautiful

If I can help you with that first item, give me a call. :-)

More Soon.
