last coastal trip, before the snow flies

One of my favorite books from childhood says it best! Thanks to Leo Lionni, Frederick is forever...


"I do work, I gather sun rays for the cold dark winter days."














"I am gathering words for the winter days are long and many,
and we'll run out of things to say."














"'What about your supplies, Frederick?' they ask.....

Close your eyes"

"Now I send you the rays of the sun.....do you feel their golden glow?"
