Maybe you feel like you need to spend more time reading? But it feels like a whole book is too much?
I am here with a solution.
Go over to Taiban, and step inside the old church and read the walls. The plot can be a little hard to follow, but it won’t take you long to read the stuff that’s there. And the next time you’re there, you can read a whole new assortment of things.
That’s a literary win. Kind of.

pedernal: a non-traditional angle
If you are the littlest bit familiar with Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings of the New Mexico landscape, then I bet you’ve seen various versions of the mesa known as the Pedernal.
However, for some reason, none of hers included a picnic shelter and/or a belly dump trailer. That seems like sort of an oversight on her part, but who am I to say?

the way is clear
I was a weird, anxious little kid. Almost everything gave me reasons to worry.
For example, Young Me would have been terrified of these cliff-side signs; I figured our station wagon and our entire family would probably somehow not make the curve and would wind up in a busted-up heap way down below.
Now, all these decades later, I was so brave and stood right there and made a few photos. And then, I got in my car and continued the drive up the mountain without the tiniest bit of anxiety.
