Has anyone read Timeline, by Michael Crichton? I love me some good time travel, even when romance isn’t involved! #booksky πŸ“šπŸ“–

I haven’t read that one, but I’ve enjoyed several others written by the same author. ✍️

@cnn.com Your space travel expert, Miles O’Brien should be ashamed of himself after his derogatory comments regarding the members of the all women passengers would not be β€˜good at science or math’ and more worried about their physical appearance. Really? Shame!!

The Peace of Wild Things
Wendell Berry

When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

I read this on dark days for a little solace.

Depends where in Castle Rock. We have been under the fog all day near the Red Hawk area.

This is so true for me! Yes I was interested when I was younger, but now it is about leaving a kinder, safer world for my adult children and future grandchildren!
