New BPP Book Club selection


Very excited about the next book we're reading for the BPP Book Club, Anya Ulinich's Petropolis. She's an amazing writer. Also, this enables me to think in Russian a bit, something I don't get to do enough these days. Amazing how much I remember after all these years.

A day in the country


Yesterday we went to Harriman State Park. After a swim at a crowded beach, and much grumbling, Nathaniel consented to go on a trail walk. Within five minutes we were far from the crowds. A few minutes later, after scrambling up some beautiful boulders, we came out at the top of a ridge and saw this view. A good day.
