A north wind blows (of course).
Trees toss and rustle.
Waves run.
A hawk hovers.
Clouds are sunlit or gray.
Cloud shadows scythe.
The sea is steel-like at a distance, white or green close in.
Surf roars.
Sunlight blinks on the sea.
Ketch, hydrofoil and dinghy are docked.
Lawn and flowers surround a stone house.
Boats rock.
Lines creak.
Earth is warm.
Air is chill.
Autumn approaches.
Download Guthrie visits Anson Guthrie's great-grandson, Lars Rydberg, and Lars' wife, Ulla, and we are grateful for the descriptive passage preceding their conversation.

Kaor, Paul!
And the living Anson Guthrie had helped with his great grandson being adopted by a childless couple when the young Dagny felt unable to become a mother at age 16, but absolutely refused to have the child aborted.
And I noted that flying bird of prey, a favorite trope of Anderson, both on and off Earth. Even tho similar creatures on other planets will not be, strictly speaking, BIRDS.
Ad astra! Sean
