#weslandiasummer

I invite you to make 2020 a Weslandia summer!

I grew up in a time when playing outdoors was what every kid did during the summer. The book, Weslandia by Paul Fleischman, makes you want to create a space of your own and explore the world in new ways. When I received the manuscript nearly 25 years ago, I was living on an island off the coast of Maine. It made me want to go outside and create something. It will do the same thing for you, I hope. Despite the restrictions and uncertainty of our time, the pandemic does offer us a rare opportunity to create and find adventure right in our own backyards, local parks and land trusts, near-by fields, woods and wild spaces.


What kind of civilization will YOU create this summer? Whether it is building a new shelter

or re-discovering an old hideout, learning a new skill, tending a garden, or reading in a makeshift hammock, I encourage you to get outside, 'to open yourself up to chance, . . invite the new and unknown!"


I would invite you to enter Wesley's world and my contest. Be sure to use the hashtag #weslandiasummer so I can share in your adventures.

The article aboutsikkim game apk gives a useful overview for readers interested in mobile access. I think the most important point is to download applications only from sources that can be trusted. Unknown APK files may create unnecessary security risks. The guide could also mention checking compatibility with the Android version and ensuring enough storage space. Overall, the topic is explained in a simple and practical manner.

I spent some time looking at Jalwa app because I wanted to understand how the platform is arranged before doing anything with it. What I noticed first was the importance of having the basic information easy to find. I generally prefer checking the available details myself instead of relying on promotional descriptions. That gives me a clearer idea of what the platform actually offers and how it works.
