That's far too high a compliment, Bryan, but thank you. I wonder, had he ever consented to publish something weekly, what it would have looked like. There was such elegance and gentle nuance to his work.
Jason- Your writing makes me pause, feel, remember and reflect, cry from sorrow, cry for the beauty, explore new research and reread favorite authors, and sometimes just sit and consider phrases such as “quietness... as in a modesty of presence.” Thank you for each one of your columns that I’ve read and enjoyed, the ones in your archive I have yet to read, and those yet to be birthed!

Barry Lopez would have welcomed and praised this essay, Jason. We miss him, but his legacy remains
in essays like this one. Thanks.

There's no higher praise from a reader than what you've offered here, Laura. Thank you very much. I'll do my best to live up to it.
Be well,
Jason.
