The Folium Diary
The Folium Diary begins as the playful audio journal of Cherie Hazzard, a brilliant, elusive young woman documenting her “internship” with a mysterious project called the Folium. Through books, banter, flirtation, philosophy, and small-town drama, Cherie gradually reveals that the diary itself is part of a larger performance: an attempt to introduce a long-term social vision rooted in ecological wisdom, affectionate anarchy, and the nurturing of better humans. As the story unfolds, family secrets, doppelgängers, hidden rooms, and shifting narrators widen the world. By the end of season one, the Folium emerges as both idea and experiment: a strange, loving nudge toward a better civilization.

I'm going to find out who plays the beautiful theme music - it makes me feel mysterious!
UPDATE: I have been informed the music was performed by Big Lazy! Surely this is a band after my own lazy heart. I will add them as a contributor.

I think the soaking pool deserves its own guest page, and Ruby's Spa? Of course! I expect to be conducting a lot of research there.

We start our first book of the week!
(Oops - did I say "world's largest barber pole"? I meant "tallest". But come to think of it, wouldn't the tallest also be the largest?? Forest Grove might want to have a word with these folks.)
In non-barber pole news, I'm now announcing the diary page number at the start of each episode, making it easier to follow and less likely some klutz records over an exist...
"...bold, positive, and hopeful..."

Please note: The 'Hot Mama Sausage' is on the menu as a side dish. I 'forgot' to mention that I'd eaten a delicious burger before the kids dared me down the path of culinary chaos. No shade on Betty! (Yes, I'm still scared of her)
(Look at Raff's leaf! Why does she get to be so extra?)

Thanks to the old salt at the Seaside Historical Society for telling a well-worn tale one more time - it sent shivers up me timbers.
