Under Vixen’s Mere is one of those novels that quietly gets under your skin and then refuses to leave.
From the opening pages, the prose immediately stood out to me. It’s spare without ever feeling sparse—clean, confident, and quietly assured. Dialogue and description are held in careful balance, each doing its work without calling attention to itself. Nothing strains for effect, and that sense of restraint builds trust early on, inviting the reader to settle in and follow where the story leads.
What makes this book especially satisfying is its sensory richness. The attention to detail is so precise you can practically smell the bread cooling on the racks, the sharpness of cheese, the damp stone after rain. It is comfort reading with substance: sunshine and laughter paired with the everyday complications life throws at us, and the quiet resilience required to meet them.
This is not a book about capital-H heroes. Instead, it centers on people who engage in small acts of service, kindness, and yes, heroism—not for recognition or glory, but because it was the right thing to do in the moment. These are stories of people showing up when it would have been easier not to.
Cool shot; is that yours?
I new it was a gyroscope like device before it read it above the picture.
I have an old one that was given to me by Santa way back, it is almost antique.
Motorcycle wheels act like gyroscopes too, they try to keep pointed in the direction they came from.
I found that out the day a muffler popped up from under a car I was following at about 80 mph.
The bike kept straight ahead!
I’d like to have a device like that one. Nice picture.
Happy WW!

I had a gyroscope when I was a kid, loved it…it wasn’t htis big though, nice shot…could be something the Borg left for Jean Luc Picard…
That is just SO cool. I love how the light plays off the curved gunmetal surfaces. Science meets art.
Interesting! MY daughter recently did something to do with gyroscopes for school – to be honest it was the first time I ever heard of them!!
what a treasure that is!! I love that. My son would love one of those.
Because some people asked… I took this picture with my Samsung Blackjack Cell phone, following a friend’s tenet that the best camera for the job is the one you have with you.
It’s a navigational gyroscope from a dirigible (airship), and I snapped the picture at the Frontiers of Flight museum at Dallas’s Love Field on Saturday.
That’s pretty cool! Nice shot too:)
