Thank you for posting that haunting music, accompanied by paintings and views of the serenity of the Hudson river and upstate New York, where I was born and raised. Having spent my formative years there and in neighboring Vermont from where my mother hailed, this was especially meaningful to me.

I believe I became one of your indolent women in summer, however, as I sat transfixed before my computer while listening and viewing, taking away time from my duties of food prep for a cookout today. Music and art like this are so beautiful and sublime that they cause a magnificent sense of pain in a way that I am somewhat at a loss to describe.

I also came down with a hell of a case of homesickness.

Thanks anyway, and God bless you on this, our nation’s birthday!
