A wood framed study lined with book shelves, a sprawling veranda with stout columns supporting a broad awning for shade, with rocking chairs overlooking rolling grassy lawns, and ancient oak with thick branches that spread open and seem to hug the earth from above, with mountains in the distance, their ridge lines cascading from the horizon, and plenty of birds filling the sky and air with their murmuring dance and murmuring song.
