Forget the book, get out and enjoy the fresh air....

That I did. It was 81 today and a great day when I was outside (after church). Among other things, I cut the grass and tidied up the yard. I think this will be last time I have to cut the grass this year. Back around 2003 or thereabouts, it was still growing and cut it on the day after Christmas.

It was 81 today and a great day when I was outside (after church)...good for you - just finishing mulch-mowing my half-acre or so worth of leaves myself - great feeling of accomplishment at 76 years of age - maybe even better than when I read some of those books you mentioned ("Magic Mountain" "Crime and Punishment") years ago......
