nightdog_barks: In the morning mist, a huge oak tree rises in a field (Field Oak)
Because chiclets, it was beautiful here today. Warm and sunny under a wide blue sky. Here is some this-and-that ...

1) This is a sad and scary read from Outside magazine: My Father's SOS -- From the Middle of the Sea. A former editor at the magazine writes about her dad's determination to sail solo around the world, and the mystery that results.

2) Finished reading The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet, by Becky Chambers, and ... I liked it a lot. I think an entertaining story about the "found family" of a small, diverse spaceship crew was just what I needed at this point in time. It kept me interested and made me feel good, and it worked for me. I'm not sure if I'll read the two sequels yet.

3) What else? IDK. We have to do a Social Thing Sunday evening, and I do not like Social Things. Fortunately, it's only supposed to last a couple of hours. I can do that. :-)

Three things make a post.
