Gold and Red

October, with its slanted light, gives our normal landscape metallic powers: silver at twilight, golden throughout. Painters paint it, writers write it, all of us taking our time with a mental photograph of something beautiful and vast. Not a lady, not a singular dancing man on your 2-inch screen, it is not easy to record. You must find the colors or the words to capture a whole planet under a unique sky, turning, like a top — we hope, a perpetual top — through the universe. Soon after sunrise, coming upon the spent sunflowers, the flock of goldfinch rise and ... by Marilee Foster

Rethinking ‘Marshes’

What a difference several decades have made when it comes to wetlands. At long last, there’s been a change spurred by enlightened government leadership, action by environmental organizations and, amid the climate crisis, the realization of the importance of wetlands in providing coastal resiliency in the face of climate change. Wetlands, where fish feed and breed — among other attributes — are a vital part of the environment. But for so long this was not recognized.

And would that sense of emergency translate into Earth-friendly public policy? Is Hurricane Helene just such an event? The impact of the path of devastation from Tampa, Florida, to the western portion of North Carolina and eastern Tennessee can be measured in lives ... by Staff Writer

The Best Party Ever

I can’t remember the last time we had trick-or-treaters. I miss the little children dressed as wanna-be witches, princesses and superheroes, rushing to the door, yelling, “Trick or treat!” I liked dressing up as a child but not as an adult. I cringed when we received an invitation to a costume party. It seemed like such an effort, but they were always fun. Dressing as a nun was easy while I still had my college robe and fun when paired with a male dancer. I also had been Edward Scissorhands, and a member of Kiss. We had a lot of ... by Denise Gray Meehan
