Sun Day (like a Snow Day only . . .). Happy reading.

Hollie Thankfully our outside temp in Plainville is going down with some rain, because it was 85 inside. My AC can't come back on fast enough! 7y

Very happy to have been 30+ pages in by the time the hard copy arrived. Next chapter: "The Bane of Capitalism."

While I await the arrival of Tropic of Kansas (@vivastory @Hollie @brennahawleycraig ) the hard copy of Dark Valley, I'm reading the first chapter of DV on Kindle and I can't decide whether to be impressed or depressed by the prescience of some post Great War statesmen.

Hollie That is pretty deep! 7y
