Hey folks, I have been off-line for several weeks - work, travel, etc.....
Today we were surprised with our first snow. We experienced a major shift in season relationship overnight. Yesterday, my landscape crew (yes, I said often that I was retiring but I am still consulting and I love my past working crew) helped me build a new retaining wall. I was so...oooo! cold by 3pm that I couldn't function by 5pm. Now we have snow and falling leaves. My thoughts go to winter reading in a heartbeat...
What's on your reading list for the winter months. Anything new out there that is attracting your attention?
Currently I am reading Plants and Empire Colonial Bioprospecting in the Atlantic World by Londa Schiebinger. I started this book this past summer and got no where with it. It is clearly an academic work published by Harvard University Press and requires more than my scattered brain could handle during the planting season. I am looking forward to cold days inside in order to focus my attention to this interesting topic.
