Yesterday. A birthday. This is for my cousin, Hanna, who turned older yesterday. I think that we actually turn older every day, while maintaining the memory of before. But, still, it is good to remember days-of-birth, so I texted some electronic flowers.

I should find something to do” and “I’ve wanted to walk this 35-mile trail since I heard about it last summer.” So, I told my cousin, and she was on board for a Sunday-through-Monday hike.
