As for my life in history books, like my not-quite hero Thomas Jefferson, I cannot live without books. Today, I received my latest order from Amazon: A biography of the great California architect Irving Gill; a book about the TV Show The West Wing; and "Managing Sales for Business Growth."

Man does not live by the nut flush alone.

I just ordered a couple of books off eBay, on recognizing edible wild plants.

I think I can already recognize nuts.

Ever tasted sheep sorrel, minty birch twigs, wild wintergreen, or cattail roots? Those I know, but there are many yet to learn.

It's for when I buy a little place up in the Northern Wilds. Coming soon, here's hoping...;-)

Reading takes on a special deep rich flavor up in the woods, in a cabin, by a wood stove: with starlight everywhere outdoors and balsam fir tree smell faintly ever-present in the air. It's been such a long time, really. Just a ways yet more to go.
