Oh, yeah! ...forgot about my beach reading: we go most days to the coast (Southern Oregon) for a sunset/sand walk, during which I'll often bring a book to read while the wife wanders with the pooch; these days it's Exuberance by KRJamison. A few quotes/images: ' "Caterpillars, cockroaches, grasshoppers, lobsters or crabs or snails are not to be distinguished from their seniors by any excessive gaiety." ' ' "Once I saw a rush of which the object was a butterfly. Eyes wide, a gang of young male elephants collectively weighing maybe 40 tons thundered to a stop as the small fairy, white and weightless, rose up out of their midst. Then each turned on his heels and fled." ' dc
