The Stand

It's been an interesting experience reading The Stand during a pandemic. This book came out in 1978. It's frightening how many references the book makes that actually happened. The book is truly a prophesy. The book is very long (1,149 pages) and I'm finally coming towards the end. As you can imagine, the book is very dark, so you have been warned. Happy summer reading!

My Patio Oasis

I am disappointed in not taking a summer vacation this year. Though all things considered, I am grateful for good health and outdoor space in my patio where I can read and relax with a cold drink. After all, vacation is a state of mind. My patio is little slice of heaven at home.
