The books above arrived while I was in Ann Arbor for a quick “reconnect and recharge” with my two favorite humans. Ordinarily, the drive there takes about five hours, but the last few times, it has taken much longer. On Friday, I left thinking I’d arrive by 7 p.m. their time, but I pulled into their driveway just before 10 p.m. Yeah, that’s pretty rough, but we had a wonderful visit, including a trip to Matthaei Botanical Gardens.

I read The Song of the Dodo years ago. I don’t remember much in it, but I’ve always liked Quammen’s writing. My parents used to subscribe to Outside Magazine, where he had a regular column.
