More LA Pics
This is what my Sunday nights look like at LAX
Insane. It took an hour last week for me and Benji to board our bus, get to the parking lot, and get on our way.
Road warrior congestion.

The Far Pavilions - an Awesome book
Enriched ContAnd it's not just me who thinks so. Just finished the first volume.
- Can't wait to get my hands on Volume 2.The far pavilions
Kaye, M. M. (Mary Margaret), 1908-2004.SummaryWhen The Far Pavilions was first published nineteen years ago,
it moved the critic Edmund Fuller to write this: "Were Miss Kaye
to produce no other book, The Far Pavilions might stand as a lasting
accomplishment in a single work comparable to Margaret Mitchell's
achievement in Gone With the Wind." From its beginning in the foothills
of the towering Himalayas, M.M. Kaye's masterwork is a vast, rich
and vibrant tapestry of love and war that ranks with the greatest
panoramic sagas of modern fiction. The Far Pavilions is itself a
Himalayan achievement, a book we hate to see come to an end. it is a
passionate, triumphant story that excites us, fills us with joy, move us to
tears, satisfies us deeply, and helps us remember just what it is we want
most from a novel.
