59 rotations around the sun. Thank goodness for a small tight circle in Greencastle to celebrate with, and wine shipped in from Napa Valley. It was a birthday to remember!

It's always hard to describe my experiences at @kimbiliofiction.com. The way the dusk light falls over the backdrop at Wild Acres Retreat here in Little Switzerland, N.C., captures it with a handful of my fellow Kimbees in a circle, enjoying one another's presence. #kimbilioretreat2025
