Oh, for an east-wind with a breath of the salt sea in it. Of course, this infernal atmosphere has given me a cold; and I have sat shivering all day, with an utter disinclination to move. All day, I mean, until somewhat past four, when Julian and I set out for the village.
Mr. Hawthorne (may I call you Nathaniel? or Nath? Uhm.. Natty?) - just wanted to say I love your work.
btw - you should post to your "gear" section that someone is selling a "baby buggy" (now with WOODEN wheels!), the latest in baby gear. Here's the link.
