Today marks the last episode in our spring series. Now, I’m not entirely sure what this summer and the future of Idlewild Cottage will look like, so in the meantime, I’d love to leave you with a tribute to several sweet childhood haunts and hideaways in literature. We’ll begin, most fittingly, with Anne Shirley’s very own Idlewild, which - as you may have guessed - is the inspiration behind the name of this podcast.
