Just this evening walked by the police station a half-a-block down the side street. This flag must have been put up a few days ago. The photos of the three policemen from there lost on 9/11 are always out front.

Elizabeth Gilbert’s Latest Epiphanies

“Eat, Pray, Love” was a huge hit in part because readers imagined they could be like its author. Her new book, “All the Way to the River,” shows how dubious that notion was.

BACK FROM WYOMING. Walking to my coffee place there the other morning. Liked the look of this place. The mountain in the one picture is just an in-town slope. The Tetons are not right in town. It’s become very expensive there. Natural beauty has much to do with it. But you can’t build on 97% of the county. Vast public land. Beautiful there.
