Above-freezing #SilentSunday and just a peaceful walk in a county park. The weather is forecast to turn south from here, good for reading. I'm having a hard time finishing a book which was supposed to be one of the best in 2023. Magazines' and critics' rave reviews don't seem to agree with me.

Deer Lick Park, GA

It was a shorter week but still #TGIF
We will have a walk (or two, weather permitting) and a lot of rest for a full week starting next week.
I have bought way too many e-books on my new Nook (not Kindle ever), and I have to catch up, too.
Have a good weekend, everyone.

Unpopular (correct) opinion: the first several generations of Barnes & Noble's Nook hardware was both more innovative and better designed than the contemporary Kindles.
