This was the sign I marched with on Saturday (picture taken before I attached two sticks for handles). There are SO MANY issues, but this was the best sign idea I had. Possibly because some of my favorite memories are from Yosemite, Yellowstone, and Acadia. 💚

I love the premise of this book- two college buddies set out to watch a game at every major league ballpark in 30 days. It didn‘t quite work in execution though. One of the guys didn‘t even like baseball. So it‘s less a book about baseball than a book about two guys waiting for baseball games to end so they can explain some more about road trip logistics.

Aims42 Awww, bummer! The premise of this does sound good! ⚾️ 1d
Susanita This is out-of-date now with new teams and so many new parks, but it‘s a fun book. 1d

Culture Smart! Ireland | John Scotney
post image

Being in a reading slump means I'm still "in Ireland" for #foodandlit but since my guy is playing pickleball, the pup is content to lounge with me, and today's scrolling doesn't feel so doom-y, I'm going to finish my Ireland Overview with some Irish Pub ambiance on the screen.

Yet another aspirational library. That little spiral staircase (which also leads to a hidden hallway to the guest rooms). I have mixed feelings about the Gilded Age (and decidedly negative feelings about its current reboot), but they had awesome private libraries---and views.

Biltmore Estate, Asheville, NC

Faranae I use a photo of the John Work Garrett rare book library on my stream, and it must have been redecorated around the same time as the Biltmore Estate (it was built 10-15 years before), because the colour and fabric choices are identical. The Garrett is slightly less baroque, but that's only because they spent all their Gilded Age money... gilding a bathroom! 2d

My April #bookspin. Every month I look forward to the numbers and every month I make a fun list, but I haven‘t been posting them. Litsy is a wonderful refuge in these turbulent times; it‘s always good to check in. Getting ready to start the tagged book!

Really enjoyed this memoir of a couple who lose everything that matters (their house, his health) except each other. They walk the southwest coast of England when they nowhere else to go or nothing to do. I am going to read the sequel immediately and look forward to the movie coming out based on the book.
