MJ is over my shoulder. I'm sawdusty and sposed to be pruning. She started a sentence, "I could tell them about...." and she has been sidetracked writing down Carl Hiaasen.
OK: "Rattlesnake Crossing, Jance, Hillerman, Eagle something.... I'm just saying those are the new ones dear."
"But whose that guy that does the costume things in Rome, hon?"
"Sayles? Sayers? Gus's dad reads him too. Carol O'Connell is very good; I think.
I, Gaugie, personally have NO time to read, (where do you people get....and what keeps you awake?) as I must pay attention to things like....uhmmm..... shoulders. Road shoulders. Maybe." Straley? Alaskan stories? "He felt sorry for the garbage."
The four corners and Anasazi+Regionals and Descendants are, regardless of never having read Hillerman, my favorite place and people. Have been since I was five, because my mother subscribed to Arizona Highways. Beautiful Navajo shepherdesses in Dark Blue Velvet with Turquoise Silver and Orange Sand. Lemme be a little sheep, please. |
