Birds and book, days 218 - 220 (as likely as not)

[emmarytz]

Okay, probably more likely not but if 217 was correct on my previous post then this should cover the following three days. And what a three days they've been, I'm inclined to feel, but now that I have time to sit down and write and I can't remember what it is that I wanted to post about. I fall back, as usual, on plumbing

My condolences on the plumbing. Do keep us posted on how well you wind up liking O'Neill when all is said and done. I could use a good plumber myself. Keep thinking happy re-landscaping thoughts as a silver lining to the plumbing gloom.

Lovely photos, as always.

I can't imagine a situation in which I would be in a bookstore and would want to ask someone about Proust. Then again, I haven't been in a bookstore in ages because I've been busy re-reading my favorite books when I'm not busy tearing my hair out over plumages and molt.

I read an entire biography of Audubon. He was a bit of a nutter.

No, I can't either

Huh. A birding sort who is a bit of a nutter. You don't see that every day. I will provide a report about O'Neill. I'm still waiting for your report about the Hoffmeisters. -em.

Yes, you know all about Proust and want nothing to do with him

I think it was not Epilogue. My money is on Twice Sold Tales or perhaps Magus. -em
