Archival Magic | Summer

by way of morning, noon, and night

Gone now, this drive-in theater scene was captured by John Margolies in 1980 near Pinellas Park, Florida. / LOC

Recent newsletters have been interesting to write (as always) but narrow in focus. I'd like to shift back toward more topic-driven, themed notes where thoughtful ideas from all spheres can interact like various neighborhood residents playing together at the community pool.

I hope you're poolside now, but when you come in to dry off, here's a collection of links to celebrate my favorite season...

morning swim lessons
noon block parties
night baseball
midnight fireflies

hotter colors
cooler shadows

drive-in movies
watermelon slices
ice cream x 10
melted popsicles
road trips (...to the moon)

A worthy July contains every element. Happy summer!
