It is also my time to unload ‘stuff.’ Loved “Marco Polo” by Loreena McKennitt. Took me back to where we once lived; in Gondwana Land. Thanks for sharing.

Keep things which evoke sentiment, like rocks and fossils and artifacts from the old home place. They are irreplaceable.
I think I am from a little north of you, in Pangaea, the part that is not Gondwanaland.

Hahaha … rocks to evoke sentiment, youthful memories? 🙂
Once upon a time, in another lifetime, Canadian Mounties thought they should examine the contents of my backpack. Bullion cubes (beef) and quite a few rocks/stones/minerals made no sense to them 🙂 Who would go on a long hike with a pack full of rocks?
Loreena McKennitt truly is wonderful.

Did you feel that? I swear – – – I just felt the craton shift. OMG, here we go again. Can’t things just stay stable for a while?

Funny you should mention that. I am about 90% finished with my next book. It is about robots taking over – – – but not due to climate change; more due to man’s inability to look himself in the eye. I will let you know when I release it on Amazon/Kindle. I will send you the link which will allow you to peruse the first ‘n’ pages. I have no idea what Kindle uses for its algorithm of ‘n’ because it varies from book to book. I have a sneaky idea that they allow human intervention in selecting ‘n.’
