Notes and observations. Diversions and digressions. All done far too infrequently.

So many books, so little time in a beautiful Vermont bookshop
The solitude of a rural used book store in Plainfield, Vermont. The Country Bookshop on Mill Street is a feast for the restive mind.
Here are some of the titles I picked up for a song this past weekend.
Michael Grant, Julius Ceasar
Luciana Ferrara, The Treasures of the Borghese Gallery
Charles Mackay, LL. D. Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
James Bruce Ross & Mary Martin McLauglin, The Portable Medieval Reader
Ian Stewart, Nature's Numbers
and my favorite Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy.
