Hello from The Big Fog
Dear Darklings,
I am writing to you from the Oregon coast deep at the ocean’s heart on the edge of wild in a month of Julys drinking hotel coffee in a fluffy robe listening to the ebb bubble and flow of waves I have not been away only sunk into my work into my book for the entire month dancing with completion full of joy there is so much I want to tell you and I will soon I promise but two things now before I rassel me up some breakfast
Happy Birthday to Mary Moon who is a beacon in my pinched little persimmon of a heart we spoke on the telephone this morning and it was so easy I felt I had known her my whole life and I have I am sorry my connection kept cutting out Mary it is iffy here always but you are not
I met Scott and Yolie they came to Summer’s End oh oh oh Scott’s eyes shoot out beams of light he is amazing sees everything and I could not keep a secret from him not ever and Yolie made me feel shy and loved and beautiful these people their energy is remarkable they were my second visitors ever I played my violin for them but completely flubbed it because I took an Ativan before they arrived because I am not accustomed to human interaction and for that I am a little bit embarrassed but I did not feel judged by them not for one hot second and I am forever changed by our meeting
Love for now tomorrow is my birthday and I aim to play in the sand and eat ice cream

Dearest Rebecca, So glad to see you here with a day to spare until your birthday. Hurrah! for such visitors and a phone call with Mary Moon for her day of days. Mailings from here are late. However, intentions, if they count, are true. Wishing you a most blessed birthday eve. Love from Marylinn
I am having the best birthday I can remember in forever and ever, maybe ever in fact and talking to you this morning made it splendid. I believe we have known each other our whole lives, we just weren't aware of it until a few years ago. That's how it feels, at least.
You enjoy your ocean and I will enjoy my river and tonight I'll dine on the Atlantic ocean and somehow, the currents flow direct and true from me to you.
Absolutely.
Eat ALL the ice cream!
You are precious.
Marylinn, hello my friend! Thank you for the birthday wishes I gobbled them right up. Intentions count for everything. Love
Rebecca
Mary, it was amazing to talk to you. My family here in the flat blue world is my family believe it. When I get home I can’t wait to show you my thrift shop find. It’s all wrapped up in newspaper and bubble pack and is about as big as a minute. Love
Rebecca
Happy Birthday to you, Rebecca! Enjoy your trip! I too am vacationing in Oregon, seeing my dear daughter, her husband and my sweet grand dog. Watching the waves, feeling the fog, drinking wine into the late night and loving the cool weather. Tomorrow it’s back to the gawdawful heat. Janet
Hi Janet! “””waving from my hotel balcony toward your voice””” 53 degrees and heaven in Newport.

Happy birthday, dearest Rebecca. You are so loved from this corner of the globe, for so many years. May the new birthday year bring you happiness, continued rocking creativity, health, peace and good food.
Thank you Elizabeth you magiker. You stitch up the edges of my crooked universe with power and tenderness. So glad for your constant your rare intense humanness.

Rebecca
Happy birthday, dear woman. I know what you mean about Scott and Yolie, they are wonderful and when I met them I felt as if I always knew them, which is how I felt when I met you. I will never forget the enveloping feel of your hug, and the sense it gave me of being home. I agree with Mary, we have always known each other but had to build magic portals to one another here.
Dearest Rebecca! I did not miss your Birthday! I just couldn't get to a device long enough to write my wish for you which is all the best of everything and beyond. Meeting you was the tops. It's why I came here. That gift you gave me has been...deep. I sit with it everyday. It's brewing, marinating, stewing and steeping it's magic in me. I cannot Thank you enough. You are a treasure. Love you, Yolie
p.s. I would have taken an ativan if I'd had one! I was pretty excited to meet you.
