A quiet summer morning becomes a reminder that success isn't always measured by being busy. From gardening and fly tying to teaching beginners in the Smokies, this Field Note is about choosing a slower, more intentional life.
A quiet summer morning leads to reflections on home, freedom, gardening, local food, and choosing a life rooted in adventure. From cleaning our brick rental house to harvesting the season's first tomatoes, this edition of Field Notes captures the beauty of slow living in East Tennessee.
This first Field Note shares a summer morning inside our converted old church—living without air conditioning, tending the garden, returning from Minnesota, and finding beauty in ordinary life.
