And isn't the adventure in the NOT knowing?

Lake Lanier @LakeLanier

I think the question you should be asking yourself is why your aunt wants you to go to a cursed murder lake.

I'm sure it will be fine though. Maybe.

Y'know . . .we didn't find it necessary to shoot our magnificent boy Dell, and he had a brain tumor. He left the world on his own terms after a too short but very wonderful life. No damned gravel pit for him.

Camping and waterfall hunting with Dali. So much better than shooting her and dumping her in a gravel pit. For both our sakes.

I'm standing with Dali near Chequagua Falls in the Finger Lakes. Our Roadtrek camper van is on the right.

April 26 #cut
A friend and I used to have an April ritual that we called "Green Haze Day". Whichever one saw their street in that first burst of new leafiness phoned the other to proclaim the day had arrived. This is my Green Haze. All but these 3 were cut down years ago.

Three trees with new green leaves are in a line against a blue sky with puffy white clouds. There is a sidewalk, lawns and a blooming redbud tree to the left. A silver van is parked under the front tree. A line of houses is across the street from the trees.

I will always bemoan the fact that we allow people who don't understand how government works to sit in positions of power. The person in the #3 top seat needs to have a working knowledge of our system. It's appalling that this one doesn't.

I want to re-write the current Phryne Fisher book by Kerry Greenwood. After years of loving everything about the series, I can't accept how off the mark the current book is. Is has so many mistakes and glitches in the continuity. It's like it went to press without an editor. So very disappointing.

I re-read as much as I read new. If I've fallen in love with characters and a place, I want to re-visit because I really miss them.

Drea @DreaVilleneuve

Q3: Do you re-read books for enjoyment, or are you done when you've finished a book? #SpoutAbout #Books

No reader. Only actual books. Hard cover for the couple of series I intend to keep and re-read. Otherwise, a mix of whatever is available at used bookstores and library sales.

Not anymore. As a kid, I was at my corner drugstore every week when the new Marvel or DC titles came out. And I have all the Modesty Blaise graphics (and novels) from decades ago.

April 24 #denim
Years ago during a dreadful time of loss, I began dreaming about a white wolf who walked with me for protection. I told a friend, and she painted her version on this denim jacket. I wore it for so many years that its sleeves got ragged. I will always keep it.

Faded and tattered denim jacket with a huge white wolf head painted on the back. His ears are pine trees. His eyebrows are blue whales. His eyes are yellow, and his black nose looks like a bear foraging.

This is an opportunity you don't want to miss. Derek's Avatars, for those of us who have accepted his generous offer, have delighted everyone. It's not just seeing what his AI art makes of you, but how your fellow Spouters like to be portrayed. Down to earth or Epic. They're all great.

Folks that know me well shouldn't be surprised by anything I'll share in this thread. Folks that don't know me that well may find some surprises here. I'm not really looking to debate any of this but wanted to put some perspective on why I may post some of the things I may post about.

This one will be a stretch. I never drink, and John stopped years ago. The closest I can get are a couple of shot glasses that John saved from the wayback days. One was from a tasting at the Isle of Arran Distillary.

It was a terrific upgrade in services when Detroit started to pick up recycled material several years ago. Before that, we made monthly trips to a local recycling center with a trunkful of glass, paper, metal and plastics.

Blue recycling bin with a black top. "Detroit Recycles" is printed in white with two curved arrows going in a circle around the slogan. The bin has black wheels and sits on a concrete walkway with grass in front and white and green siding behind.

I believe this evil was part of the reason a library volunteer, a woman I mistakenly assumed to be well read and informed, nearly foamed at the mouth when she saw my Hillary campaign buttons when I was at a used book sale. She literally shouted at me for supporting "that woman, a proven criminal".

Ronald Alexander @djchefron

Every time you checked out at the grocery store this was right there influencing you. Now you tell me about the MORON in collusion with Pecker didn't influence people's decisions in 2016. Not a crime in itself but part of election interference that is the heart of the trial

I'm currently diving into Laurie R. King's latest Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes adventure, "The Lantern's Dance". Every book in this series has been sooooo good.

Barb and I hadn't seen each other for several years after she moved to Seattle to pursue her career and take care of family. When John and I were able to visit on our western camping trip, a good, warm hug made all the great times together come flooding back to mind.

Two friends hugging. We are in the kitchen of the one sitting. There are plants and flowers lining the counter behind us. The bottom of a white lace valance is in the upper right.
