[slideshow]So, yes keeping current with eat,pray,read is a challenge. That’s because life involves all of that and more! Let’s go back to February for today…the past is still with us, and to be cherished.
Visiting Steve and Dee at their home in Carlsbad California was the finale to our wonderful Cali vacation.
Steve challenged me the other day by reminding me that I had neglected to post highlights of the visit – despite the fact that we talked about books and ate wonderful meals, and walked the beautiful, peaceful beaches!
Some of the books:
The Wave, In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean, by Susan Casey
The White Tiger, by Aravind Adiga
Matterhorn by Karl Marlantes
Ahab’s Wife, by Sena Jeter Naslund
We went whale watching in San Diego harbor. Hence Ahab’s Wife was mentioned. Steve was reading The White Tiger on cd while in his car on the lovely drive down the coast to the San Diego Salt Mines called his office. The Wave is another recommendation from my ‘still surfin’ cousin. And Matterhorn, which is sounding like a man-book being read by a guy who likes man-books as well as great food, wine, and family time! Wonderful people. Wonderful place! Timeless!
