This was a beautiful piece. It really made my day.

The sense of "place" that I am searching for and have found at various points in my life, is a location that has a combination of still and moving features to it. A tree, a little bit of street traffic, some foot traffic is even better. The porch pace is the snow melting off a neighbors roof and the sound the melt water makes as it flows down to the street gutter. 

You really inspired me with this post :-)
