Jo,
I like the summers well enough. The weather is nice (invariably), the work is fine (like the sailboats more than the socialites, as you guessed last time we talked about this). I don't feel like I've gotten a "normal" summer yet, though — summer of 1891 we were getting ready for the wedding, and I was trying to get the house set up and living there by myself, and then summer of 92 Zelda was pregnant and we were getting ready for O.
My son's name is Orion, by the way. I don't remember if you already knew that. Orion Horatio Darrow. He was born in August.
Are you and Zach —? Together? Married?
(I'm sort of glad I can ask that in a letter rather than in person. You're right that not knowing these sorts of things is terribly awkward.)
