» Last week I heard what qualifies as the Most Absurd Question in the world. My friend told me about going to a neurologist who asked her:
» On our way home yesterday we saw a lovely little family of wild turkeys. Approaching them made them skittish but here are a couple pictures.
» Add these “must reads” to my Summer Reading Challenge: North of Ithaka by Eleni Gage and Eleni by Nicholas Gage. HT (and thanks) to Di. My niece is in Greece! She’s not yet, but “will be in Greece” doesn’t pop with the same rhythm. My niece received a fellowship to study in Greece this summer. [Doesn’t that sound like a spelling sentence?] So while she is soaking up the Athenian sun, I must read something that will help me be with her in spirit. Eleni is at our library in both the book and the audiobook. I love, love, love, books about other cultures, as evidenced in the four additions to my summer list.
» Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott is due back at the library today, no more renewals. It’s taking some time to copy so many passages into my journal. “Becoming a better writer is going to help you become a better reader, and that is the real payoff.” p. 10

I started Eleni once upon a time, because it is a favorite of one my friends. I keep thinking I will finish it. But this summer, I WILL finish Dwelling Place by Erskine Clarke, so that I have visit the plantation home (ruins) in south GA.
