The Library and Slow Living

Our stories today take us through some ways folks in the Village are spending their days and evenings in the early summer. We’ll start by laying the table under the string lights in the garden and pulling up chairs with friends in The Dinner Bell. Then we’ll see where the night takes us, from the park to the lot on the edge of town, with bubbles and blankets in at The Drive-In. Finally, we’ll slow down, take some deep breaths, and reset by arriving Early to Yoga. Subscribe to our Premium channel. The first month is on us. 💙 NMH merch, autographed books, and more!

Wind, Rain, and Hummingbirds (Encore)

Originally presented as Episode 26, June 10, 2024 Our stories today celebrate some of the joys of being outside in the changing weather of the summer. First in Wind and Wildflowers, we’ll hike the trail behind the house, listen for woodpeckers, and watch the grasses sway in the wind. Then in Rain and Shine, we’ll finish up some work in the garden, take a long hot shower, and eat dinner on the porch, as the storm rolls in. Finally, in Hummingbird, after a good night’s sleep, we’ll step outside with a glass of iced coffee and meet the morning and any visitors coming to breakfast from the flowers.

Spending Time, In the Early Summer

Road Trip

Our stories today start with Road Trip, we’ll pack the car, roll down the windows, and head out on an adventure that includes small town stops, naps in the passenger seat, and most importantly, sandwiches. Then we’ll arrive at the cottage and spend a week swimming in the lake, riding bikes, and napping in lounge chairs in The Canoe. Finally, we’ll spend a few minutes in a favorite place reflecting on some small but important bit of everyday sweetness in Three Good Things.
