206

I'm catching a cold. My nose has been running and I'm starting to feel achy. Grrr, I hate getting sick. I've been reading a Rex Stout, Nero Wolfe novel "The Red Box", but keep falling asleep every two pages so seem to never get to the conclusion. It's the forth of these books I've read since the fall, they are pretty seductive but I try to avoid casual reading like this except when I've got down time.
I met a woman who used to live in Calgary and travels out west on occasion who wants to write a book about Tom Sukanen and his ship. She really only knew a superficial version of the story so I gave her a more expanded summary.
