Third Place Books

a new year

Happy New Year friends! May 2024 bring peace, good health and curious adventures to all.

This month, we’re sticking close to the fire, catching up on books (if you’ve never read Boys in the Boat — yowza and so much better than the movie), podcasts (Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers takes gold!) and Reservation Dogs (5 stars). We’re aiming for a damp January, will try our best at daily creative exercises, will make lots of posole and watch the Huskies go to the natty (go Dawgs!). If we do get out, it will be on one of these fantastic outings …
