I’d like to add a new sans serif to my font collection. I think it’s down to the two pictured above. Care to weigh in? Vote, suggest another (better) candidate?
Looking at this post, it seems that neutraface no 2 is prettier …..

bird prints by swedish artist olof rudbeck the younger
I would clear a whole wall if I had bird prints as lovely as these. Huuuuuge want, made worse by not being able to find something similar online. The hunt continues.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had any good amount of rain, which means I am back to convening with nature on a regular basis, holding the hose over the thirsty flowers. The upside is that I’m forced to notice what’s “going on”. And I have to say, with the past few days on the cool side, I’m seeing signs of autumn everywhere. On my run today the path was covered with leaves (brown, dry leaves, but still ….). The hydrangea blooms are winding down, and the hostas are in full flower.
So I guess that I’m thankful for the dry spell, because it has forced me away from my stack of magazines and my computer, and reminded me that the long and cold winter is closer than I’d like to admit. Time to get out there and enjoy the sun and the warmth and the golden light that is fall.
See you later …..

Add Lambertville, NJ to the places I want to visit, especially since I cannot read all about Fiddleheads at their website. Yet. Flowers + Edibles + Classes/Workshops? Sounds like my kind of store. Anyone have a review?
