Another book and Portland

I went up to Portland over the weekend just to see how it felt all gray and gloomy. It wasn't that bad, but I am sure it will affect me more when I have been in it for a longer period of time. While I was there I finished The Good Earth. It was a good read. I started Walden by Thoreau. The intro to this edition was written by Emerson and wow this guy was intense. I have to pay a lot of attention to what I am reading now because it is jam packed with bits of info. Thoreau really has a way of saying things. I like it.
