A meditation of sorts

As a longtime lover of the Rockies, and a new devotee of this particular Small Town, I have found Diaries to be a delightful introduction to not only the people, but especially the pacing of the place. Moving at the gentle speed of soul, this podcast literally walks the listener (cue snow crunching underfoot) through both the simplicity and complexities of small town living. It is also a love letter to a self-authored life, full of attention to beauty, valuing the prosperity of time, and finding joy in the stories of the area’s inhabitants. I look forward to it every week. Thank you!

Superbly done!

This podcast will transport you into the world of a beautiful, small high mountain Colorado town. With local color and style... I can’t wait for the next episode!
