Daily Thoughts 10/09/2014

I checked the Twitter and Facebook for the library this morning.

I read a little bit of Burdens of the Dead last night.  It is part of a series, The Shadow of the Lion, This Rough Magic, and Much Fall of Blood are books in the earlier part of the series.  The authors work well together.

I watched a little more of Baseball A Film by Ken Burns and read a bit more of Mrs. Lincoln's Dressmaker.
