I became a grandpa and finished 2 books: Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder--a novel that outlines the history of philosophy--and The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden--a fantasy novel about the tension between old world religion and Christianity in early Russia.

am--5.5 Anasazi w/ my neighbor. It's funny how my belief that it's hot outside makes it feel even hotter outside. I also finished Tokyo Ueno Station by Yu Miri. It's a short novel from the perspective of a ghost and jumps back in forth in the man's life.

am--6.5 Anasazi in the rain. It really was a beautiful run other than the extra elevation I got from the lower barometric pressure.:)
