Early Autumn Stories

Season 1 · Episode 37

Monday, September 2, 2024 • Duration 29:19

Our stories today start in the garden as we harvest a few tomatoes on our way to take the washing down from the line in The Last Warm Days. Then, we’ll shake off a stale mood and find a few small ways to practice joy in A Change of Scenery. Finally, we’ll roll up the cuffs on our pants and step into the sand just as the sun is setting on the lake in Bonfire.

Late Summer Stories

Season 1 · Episode 36

Monday, August 26, 2024 • Duration 31:05

Our stories today take us through some end of the summer moments. We’ll start with Camping out, gathering kindling for the campfire, setting up the tent, and talking through our troubles till they shrink and the stars come out. Next, we’ll step out onto the dock and catch a ride to see the sunset over the river in The Main Sail. Lastly, we’ll sneak down to a secret patch of raspberry bushes just inside a walled garden, and pick a bowlful on a sunny afternoon.

Rowboats, Hammocks, & Care Packages

Season 1 · Episode 27

Monday, June 17, 2024 • Duration 34:48

Our stories today take us to one of the most popular spots in the Village, the Inn. We’ll start by chasing the morning mist, wading out to row boat, and watching the swans at the shore in The Lake at the Inn. Then we’ll wind our way back to the dock and enjoy a slow barefoot walk through the grass around the old house till we find a spot for a perfect summer’s day nap in From the Hammock. Finally, we’ll go across town to a house where a friend is packing something up to spread some cheer and chase away homesickness in the Care Package.

Wind, Rain & Hummingbirds

Season 1 · Episode 26

Monday, June 10, 2024 • Duration 27:56

Our stories today celebrate some of the joys of being outside in the changing weather of the summer. I wrote the first one, Wind and Wildflowers, a couple of years before the second two, which are meant to be heard together as a two-part series, but I realized they feel like they are happening at the same time and since many of our storylines cross over one another, I suggest we think of these two narrators as neighbors, each enjoying the heat and then the cooling air and rain from their porches. They might wave at each other when heading out to their mailboxes, if one has a bumper crop of summer squash, a basketful will appear at the other’s door. In winter, when the days are short, they take comfort from the lighted window of the other.

So let’s visit them, first in Wind and Wildflowers, we’ll hike the trail behind the house, listen for woodpeckers and watch the grasses sway in the wind. Then, in Rain and Shine, we’ll finish up some work in the garden, take a long hot shower, and eat dinner on the porch as the storm rolls in. Finally, in Hummingbird, after a good night’s sleep, we’ll step outside with a glass of iced coffee and meet the morning and any visitors coming to breakfast from the flowers.

The Inn, Fireflies & Stones

Season 1 · Episode 25

Monday, June 3, 2024 • Duration 31:16

Our stories today have a bit of magic in them. Whether it is the mundane sort, like minnows swimming in schools beside the shore, or the more unexplainable type, like millions of fireflies blinking in unison. We’ll start at one of the favorite locations in the Village, with the original story of the Innkeeper, as she looks out from the porch and guests begin to stir up in their rooms. Then, we’ll head out with our trowel and net to find some small treasures in the sand in The Beachcomber. Finally, we’ll set out after the sun goes down to commune with the lightning bugs in Fireflies on a Summer Night.

Housewarming

Season 1 · Episode 24

Monday, May 27, 2024 • Duration 32:16

Our stories today are about finding the right gift for a special moment and letting your imagination wander along the way. We’ll start with a red envelope waiting in the mailbox (it was delivered just one episode back in Daydreamer) and the party it announces in Housewarming. Then, we’ll step into the stationary shop downtown and pursue the pencil aisle in Housewarming pt 2. Finally, we’ll deliver a lovingly wrapped gift and step out onto the patio with the perfect chilled glass of tart and sweet lemonade at the Garden Party.

Lilacs & the Strawberry Moon

Season 1 · Episode 23

Monday, May 20, 2024 • Duration 27:49

Our stories today are about some of the delights of late spring and early summer. I should say, if you are new here, that all of our stories take place in the same universe, and sometimes you’ll recognize a narrator from a previous tale or see some overlap of storylines. We’ll see that today. We’ll start with The Lilac Thief as she pulls off a heist on a dusty country road. Then we’ll step out onto the porch and enjoy the gloaming in Strawberry Moon. Finally, we’ll revisit the reformed thief as she shares her favorite flowers from the Lilac Grower.

Daydreams, Dances & Books

Season 1 · Episode 22

Monday, May 13, 2024 • Duration 29:09

Our stories today are about the joy of imagination and the creative ways people can add magic into life. We’ll start with a cup of coffee and some time at the window in Daydreamer. Then we’ll stroll through downtown as warm weather brings villagers out to play in A Dance in the Park. Finally, we’ll step into the school gymnasium to pick out some new reads for the summer in Book Fair.

Flowers & Vegetables

Season 1 · Episode 21

Monday, May 6, 2024 • Duration 29:44

Our stories today wind through sunny spring days. We’ll start with a trip into the country, a visit with someone dear, and some good advice from The Asparagus Patch. Then, we’ll roll up our sleeves and join in on a neighborhood effort in Spring Cleanup. Finally, we’ll let a memory lead us down a gravel drive, carry clippers into the field, and dream of ways to spread a bit of sunshine in the Tulip Farm.

The Lady in the Painting

Season 1 · Episode 20

Monday, April 29, 2024 • Duration 26:59

Our stories today follow two women, one as she learns new things and the other as she resides in a frame, looking over one shoulder, with a book in her hands. We’ll start with the exciting arrival of the community ed catalogue in Back to School. Then we’ll step into the studio to clear away years of dust and soot in Restoration. Finally, we’ll apply the finishing coat of varnish and consider all we have learned along the way in the Lady in the Painting.
