To aspire to see and write and love as Laura Ingalls Wilder did is a worthy ambition. And I think you're very much on the right track. I love reading what you write because of the way it makes me feel.
Thank you for creating this welcoming and cozy place and furnishing it with skies and wood stoves and mailboxes and histories and mysteries and loving kindness.
I have been thinking today (because of this letter) how letters between friends create a magical place of meeting. When I open a letter from someone, especially someone I write back and forth to, it's like opening a door to a special place... our own little room for visiting.
Thank you for all the places and spaces you give to us through your words.
Loved this, Reagan: “In the end, to placemake is to love; to love is to make a place. Not only physically but spiritually as well.”

You have indeed made a place for me, dear friend. This was a lovely letter, because it was full of love.

Love this! I grew up on the Little House books, and the stories and experiences of Laura are ones that influenced me a lot over the years.
Yes, you are so good at placemaking. And your writing reminds me that this world of sorrows and joys is also full of wonder and beauty.
So beautiful! I love this Reagan.
