exhalations

Maybe it's because I spent some time growing up in England, but for some reason I enjoy these cool, cloudy, wet days. Rode to a nearby trail to check out some trail damage with the county crew and on the return trip the spitting rain turned into a drizzle. Was pretty soaked when I got home but it felt good. Somehow the outdoor experience seems more real when there's a little discomfort involved.

Jonathan Yardley, one of the Post book reviewers, is not easily impressed. So it was interesting that he wrote a a glowing review of Ian McEwan's new book Atonement' in Sunday's Book World, and then today wrote another column about how McEwan's impressive career. Maybe I'll finally get around to reading his earlier book Amsterdam, which won the Booker Prize and is said to be a good introduction to his work.
