Hi, first time reader/commentator here. I appreciate your descriptions of a "more still" place of living and your subsequent musings thereafter. Also, poor pooch persevering through porcupine punctures.
I've actually spent a lot of time being relatively still, in that I've lived and near the same small town almost all of my life and worked for the same company for 30+ years... and yet. And yet there's still been a lot of change (and consistency, to be sure) within these decades. Two things in my favor: the Internet and my employer being a pretty big company. So there's stillness and there's stasis and I've managed to avoid the latter.

Good thought provoker.
