This week I finished Plain Truth by Jodi Picoult, about a deceased baby found in an Amish barn, really good. My mom and I traveled through Lancaster a long time ago. We were respectful, no cameras, no pointing. We were stopped at an intersection, when a buggy full of teens crossed and the driver gave us the middle finger salute. I wish I had my camera out at that moment.

I’m currently reading A Town With Half The Lights On by Page Getz, an epistolary novel told through emails, newspaper articles and messages in a bottle. It’s about a family of Brooklynites relocated to the small town of Goodnight, KS. A very fun read!

Thank you for sharing and here’s to 9000 more!.
