kaywoodie;
Good evening my cyber friend, I do hope you folks are warmer and getting less snow than we're about to partake of.

When I was doing up my 2022 reading list above, I thought that you'd either enjoy them or might have read them.

As mentioned I've got a copy of DeVoto's book and have read it a couple times.

It's interesting to me how quickly on their heels the Pacific Fur Company was out establishing posts.

Anyways sir, all the very best to you in 2022.

Dwayne


Thanks Dwayne! Got up to a pleasant 73F today. Was almost 80 yesterday and day before!

My fav is the Santa Fe trail reading! Also read a good diary by Lt. James W. Abert on his topographical expedition thru Raton Pass and down the southern Canadian river into the nations.

And the much earlier Freeman-Custis expedition.

Little known but exciting stuff.

Have a great weekend Dwayne. I’ll be off Saturday morning to the villa de Austin on the Brazos river (San Felipe) for an Eighth of January celebration. Big national holiday!!!

You take care!

Ton ami

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
