A truly unique experience is coming to my free Skool group in September. It's called "Learning to Loaf again," and yes, Walt Whitman will be involved.

I'd love to have you.

You can check out the group here: https://www.skool.com/the-patch-everyday-wanders-3746/about

It's that time of year again! If you are able, please remember to turn off outside lights at night. :)

About 150-230M birds are predicted to migrate across the U.S. each night this weekend!

Lights at night can be very disorienting to birds during their long fall migration. To help prevent deadly bird collisions, turn off or dim unnecessary lights!

Due to practices on this platform, I prefer to share my photography elsewhere. Yesterday was Nature Photography Day, so I posted just under 20 photos from spring. Lots of birds, but lots of other critters and flowers make an appearance as well.

I hope you enjoy this photo post.

P.S. There are two photo grids (you can only share in increments of 9. Be sure to scroll down for the second batch. :D )

Best of Spring: Everyday Wanders

It is free to join my seasonal email series "Summer of Joy." Not just for families or parents with young kids, this experience focuses on living a more simple summer that focuses on meaning and quality over quantity. It also comes with occasional free resources and ideas for slowing down.

Have a little fun and get back to what's "real" and what matters this summer. I hope you'll join me. :)

I'm going to include the link to join in the comments, as I've heard this platform is deliberately slowing down showing posts with links . . .

I HAVE EXCITING NEWS!

For this summer, I have created the Summer of Joy email experience. It is in alignment with my belief in simplifying life by living more deliberately and remembering the everyday moments that make life meaningful. (How very "Thoreau" of me. : ) )

It is free.

If you are interested, you can learn more about it by following the link.

Next week I will introduce a paid pass for those who would like more resources and tools to go along with the series, but the pass is optional and you will still receive a lot of value just from the free email experience.

A NOTE: This is different than my Substack, and I still plan to share my nature writing and photography there. I will also still release the third issue of my seasonal 'zine, Returning, a little prior to the official meteorological start of Summer.

I hope you will consider taking a look.

A free email experience especially for bringing back the everyday joys found in summer and life. Worry less about performance and expensive trips and instead focus on enjoying small meaningful moments.

Hello! I am part of a free event this week called the "Memory Makers" bundle. It is full of all sorts of free printables and digital items. Below is a picture of my product. If you have young children at home, you may appreciate having it come May. :D

I will eventually sell these in my store, but you get them free now by following two steps:

1. Sign up for the free Memory Makers event using this link: https://amandareneectrlz--keb.thrivecart.com/mmb/ **

2. Once you receive Rebecca (The PLR Girl)'s email, you are in the bundle and can download my freebie pictured below plus a whole bunch more fun stuff! :D

**NOTE: The above link is an affiliate link, which means if you decide to upgrade to the paid offering, I receive a commission). However, no pressure from me. I joined the bundle to share my creation ( I had a ton of fun making it and spent quite a bit of time) and hopefully to expand my email list in the process! 😅
