A few new books

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.
