There is a pain—so utter—
It swallows substance up—
Then covers the Abyss with Trance—
So Memory can step
Around—across—upon it—
Poet Emily Dickinson came into this world on December 10, 1830. #OTD bit.ly/2DZZHzR

Today is Green Friday!
What does that mean? Instead of shopping, we are encouraging people to get outside and enjoy the outdoors.
Many people in The Trustees community already embrace Green Friday as an alternative to shopping.
