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.

I like all of them, except C. Hiaasen, who I hadn't heard of before, I'll check him out. You can never have too many authors to read. The Four Corners area is amazing. I fell in love with it as a kid when we visited a cliff dwelling and climbed the rope ladders to it. I gather that it's much more difficult to get access now as the number of visitors has increased and they have had trouble with erosion, etc. Many are off limits or have limited visiting times and numbers, but you don't have to get to a dwelling to be immersed in it.
