I found these glasses a couple of weekends ago in a thrift shop. On both arms it says Liberty USA and on one arm it says Winsum. I looked both up but found Liberty USA as a sport sunglasses company. Winsum comes up as vintage, but I can't find much out about either. Was Liberty perhaps a plain old eyeglass company at one time? I did find some links to vintage Liberty USA and Winsum glasses, mostly sunglasses, from the '60s. None just like this but similar. Anybody know anything about Liberty/Winsum?

Finding magic

in a slow life.

・Est. 2010・

Ordinarily, I go to the woods alone, with not a single friend, for they are all smilers and talkers and therefore unsuitable.

I don't really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds or hugging the old black oak tree. I have my way of praying, as you no doubt have yours.

Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible. I can sit on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds, until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost unhearable sound of the roses singing.

If you have ever gone to the woods with me, I must love you very much.
