Somewhere a few pages ago, Rinker Buck mentions that he is part Irish.
The Sentence of the Day is from The Oregon Trail: A New American Journey (Was reading this in Cork and the irony was rich: She was reading about of all things mules while listening to mostly cello music in a fabulous Irish city).
A rumination on the memory of Buck’s Dear Departed Dad:
Buck’s Dad: You’re not quitting. You just keep going . . .
Buck, years later: The idea that I could be doing quite a lot by not doing anything at all, just by not quitting, was quite beyond me at the time, but I did feel that night that I had the pioneer spirit.
Very wise, Mr. Buck.
Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.
