From her 1971 Tapestry album, Carol King turned 76 this February. The year 1971 was when I started Nursing School at UCSF. Seems far away now. “A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.” Then sometimes it seems like yesterday. Now the lyrics make me think of my daughter who lives in Northern California. I look forward to seeing her face at my door soon.

Notes Tied On The Sagebrush 
Very nice, Deborah. Mt wife was editing my post for tomorrow and she wondered why I didn’t use the song. I do like it, and that was one of my favorite albums ever.

That is one of my favorite songs! Thanks for letting me hear it today. And thanks for the beautiful images. I loved the swinging seat by the water. I could imagine myself there. So peaceful.

The swing by the sea could be a great place for reverie. Glad you enjoyed the music, too. 🙂
