Erin, as I think I have mentioned before, loves the band Live. Yes, they’ve had #1 hits and have sold 20 million records worldwide but I don’t really get into them. Alas, this will be the third time she has dragged me to one of their concerts. This one is in Ketchum, ID, which is […]

*From the book Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey. We actually read this book to Maggie. It’s a very significant book, one which has had a great deal to do with the rise of the environmental movement in the last 50 years.
