So I’m pretty tired but also really pumped at the excellent, exciting, educational trail building clinic I attended today. (Need to sleep soon because we start early tomorrow and do the REALLY hard work.) But I have two pieces of book news: 1, I purchased a copy of IMBA’s Trail Solutions manual which is pretty cool (that’s the International Mountain Biking Association). 2, the classroom portion of our class took place in a local library, so I had the chance to stop in and buy a complete set of Encyclopedia Britannica from 1981!! So cool. I bought it with this awesome project in mind, but I confess, they’re such nice books, and in such mint condition, that I might have to finger them a bit first. We shall see.
That’s all for tonight – no time to read this weekend – catch up later. Go find some trail!

I definitely want updates on your This Into That!
And have we talked Bookmooch yet? Now THERE’S a dangerous hobby. You wouldn’t believe what I spent at the post office yesterday….
bookmooch, hm, I’ll look into it.
I’ve read somebody else’s reading blog (forget which for now, maybe I’ll find it later) who’s in a postal book club. how cool?? you send your own, physical book in the mail to somebody who reads it, comments in a physical notebook, and then mails on. 18 months or so later you get your book back with a notebook full of notes/comments. I think that sounds like a fun way to spend a lot at a post office. 🙂
YES that sounds rad. except for the postage. 🙂
