1. Debbie, Patrick, and Meagan arrived in Cincinnati. Patrick and Meagan's apartment has a balcony that overlooks the Ohio River and northern Kentucky and Debbie sent Christy, Carol, and me a short video and a couple of photos of the remarkable view.
By the way, it's always good news when a road trip is successful.
2. I'm moving more deeply into Lonesome Dove and more characters, more conflicts, and more possibilities for storylines to cross are developing. I'm enjoying how McMurtry has plotted his novel so far.
3. I've decided that I want to read a thick book at the same time I'm reading a shorter one. Last night, I started the smaller book that I will read alongside Lonesome Dove. After hearing Jess Walter interview Will Vlauen at a Northwest Passages evening a month or so ago, we bought Vlauen's latest book, The Left and the Lucky, but right now I'm reading another book we also bought, his novel The Horse. I'm a few pages in and I'm hooked.
