Recent happenings...
Just finished re-reading Patrick O'Leary's The Gift, quite possibly my most favorite book...
Still trying to decide what to say about Barbara Kingsolver's latest essay collection, Small Wonder. She says everything I wish I could say, and better than I could hope to...
The pictures from our excursion to the National Botanical Garden are back, and I have lots to upload if only I could find the time...
Finally made it out to Tunnels. I found it less then it's cracked up to be since I spent all my time fighting a current and seeing nothing. Ian, on the other hand, saw a reef shark...
