Nicole,

On my deck with feet up reading The River of Darkness, an account of Francisco de Orellama’s traverse of the Amazon in the 1540s, the first European to do so. Lots of mosquitoes, not a pleasure cruise.

Have a great summer. Chris Britton

I hate mosquitoes! That would be torture for me. Enjoy your vicarious adventures!

Thanks, Jo! Sometimes we talk about such heavy stuff here… Just wanted a place where we can share and connect. I hope you join us!

Connection and joy, just what we need in these challenging times. I will do my best to join. Meanwhile, I am reading books from the library on my phone or Kobo, sitting in my backyard under the 100-year-old oak tree in Toronto, participating in my own way.

Sounds like perfection. I’m so glad you’re here.
