Touching winter

the long version

As Will ages, he turns to his ranch as a place of clarity in times of crisis, eventually moving back there entirely. He exchanges the public life he and his wife led in Houston for the simplicity of walks along the rustic fence, lunch at the town's only diner with old friends, nd long evenings on the porch watching the stars. Along the way, a fierce, red-breasted hawk comes to represent something important for Will, and he is forced to face the consequences of earlier decisions.
