Pulled one of my favorite books off the shelf yesterday rather randomly and was pleasantly reminded that my aunt Ruthie gave it to me. Well before my current life even took hold. Today is her birthday. She was a marvelous human being.

Planning to sail from Annapolis to Charleston. More than just a passing fancy this year, as the universe seems to be aligning to the possibility.

This biography of acclaimed Canadian author, Farley Mowat, is highly recommended. Wonderful insights into a life fully lived.

The federal government wants to treat Baltimore like a punchline.

Carl Sagan reciting a poem on relativity:

"There was a young lady named Bright,
Who could travel much faster than light.
She set off one day, in a relative way,
And returned the preceding night."

I finally [and reluctantly] finished, Look Homeward Angel last week. It was one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read. I’ve savored it over the last five months, ever since we visited Asheville’s Thomas Wolfe Memorial State Historic Site last September, on our way to Kentucky to visit Bailey.

Musk Offers $100 to Wisconsin Voters, Bringing Back a Controversial Tactic By offering cash to voters who sign a petition opposing “activist judges,” Elon Musk’s super PAC can help identify conservative voters in a race for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

How can this practice, even be legal?

Trump Orders Gutting of 7 Agencies, Including Voice of America’s Parent The order targeting the agencies, largely obscure entities that address issues like labor mediation and homelessness prevention, appeared to test the bounds of the president’s power.

Library’s! Voice of America! So embarrassing :-(

Nice drive to Galesville. It’s still very wintery up here. Zelda weathered the snow just fine.
