A long weekend with one of my dearest friends. I've known Kate since preschool, and she has remained one of my favorites for the past twenty years. She was kind enough to come up from Boulder for the weekend, and we had a marvelous time being cozy on my couch for almost 36 hours straight. Movies, endless conversation, pizza, guac, two speaker-phone conversations with our other dearests, some strolling around town. The weather was chilly and wet and it was perfect for cozy conversation! It was the perfect transition weekend coming back from Vermont. There are few things more comforting than an old friend. Thanks, Kate. I love you.
