    I just finished Steve Turner’s book, Mud Ride, and thought it was great.

    just started the first book in the Silo Series called Wool and I am already hooked.

    Mark Synnott, The Impossible Climb
    The Impossible Climb Alex Honnold El Capitan and the Climbing Life by Mark Synnott Goodreads

    I am totally engrossed in this book on climbing and mountaineering!  The title is a bit deceiving- this book is about much more than the one single achievement of Alex Honnold climbing El Capitan- I'm half way through the book and so far that climb has only been mentioned a few times.  And for me, that is not only not a problem, I'm actually quite thrilled to be reading all these other great adventuresome stories.  Great book!

    I just finished listening to:

    A WAY OF BEING
    By Rick Rubin

    The author discusses some foundational principles that would help a scattered artists find more focus, or rather remove any blocks. 

    I plan to reread it when I feel like a scattered artist.  :)

    I'm reading

    By Stephanie Burt

    I'm enjoying it. I'm reading authors I haven't known, and I'm looking at forms in different ways. Very interesting.

    Ahhh, thanks for posting this Lou!
    I wanted a photo that kind of represented the idea of salvaging what I though were the better little pieces I'd written from amidst the pile of drek (lol) and figured a shot from a salvage yard might work.  I went to this place asked the owner if I could take a photo of part of his yard and he gave me this puzzled look and just kind of stared at me for a minute and finally said, "Well OK, just don't get any of the license plates in your pictures."
    I told him, "Yes sir, thanks so much!"
