Eerie EVP that we recorded in the pool of Indiana’s infamous Fox Hollow Farm. It’s almost as chilling as the water was.

Great to see the always excellent “The Pitt” schooling viewers on Freedom House — our first black paramedics. Don’t know the story? Kevin Hazzard wrote an excellent book about it. Every American should read it. www.npr.org/2022/09/27/1...

Currently watching “The Fox Hollow Murders” on Hulu. Any fears I may have had are unfounded. They’ve done a great job and given the victims and their families a long overdue voice. #booksky

Home to a snowy Denver from a balmy Tombstone. A big thank you to everyone who made the weekend so special, and apologies to my friends in town that I missed. Next time!

I saw something odd hovering in the skies over Arizona yesterday. Not sure what it was. Possibly a balloon. Certainly unidentified. Definitely flying. Oh, and it was clearly an object…

I spent four glorious days in a castle exploring this library of antique books. No wonder I didn’t want to leave #booksky #books #library #history #castle #shelfie

Grey Sunday mornings in the English countryside sometimes make me homesick, and bring home the words of Tolkien. My home county of Leicestershire is, for all intents and purposes, the Shire. #booksky #tolkien #lordoftherings #middleearth #books

Living in a castle this week has made for plenty of (sorely needed) reading time. I caught up on #knightsvssamurai by David Dastmalchian and “The Fell Sword,” book 2 of the excellent 5-book Traitor Son Cycle by @phokion.bsky.social highly recommended for both shivery and chivalry themes alike.
