Thank you for all of your well wishes, good vibes and rain dances! We just had our first rain of the season this week. I took a couple pictures and a short video as the rain was tapering off. You can see that and more about life up here on the mountain on the blog at https://www.listentosleep.com/blog/first-rain/.

This week's story was written by a listener from Canada named Kerri Coombs. You can find out more about her and her work at https://www.firedance.ca/. Thank you so much for sharing this story with us, Kerri.
