Do you think West With the Night is on cassette at the Provo Library?
ReplyDeleteAlso, the last two Thursdays in May are open on my calendar.
5/22 is better for me than 5/29.
ReplyDeleteLooks like no West with the Night on tape. I failed.
Lets plan on 05/22. I was thinking it will be nice enough to return to South Fork Park by then. Any other suggestions?
ReplyDeleteLooks like it's time for us to talk about some books. Can everyone come this Thursday (6/12)? Let's meet at my house (opposite Brandon's) at 7:00. We can head up the canyon, or over to Joe's or maybe just hang out here.
ReplyDeleteI'm in. Are we gonna talk "A Tree Grows..." or something else?
ReplyDeleteWhat'd you guys think of Master and Commander?
ReplyDeleteSince when is Donkey Kong in our book club?
ReplyDeleteSounds good.
ReplyDeleteDoug, come find out yourself. We're discussing Master and Commander this month. "Tree Grows" isn't until 2015.
