The Moon is Down

SHORT BOOK The Moon is Down by John Steinbeck, 1942

Lesson: when the moon is down, it is only temporary. 

"Free men cannot start a war, but once it is started, they can fight on in defeat. Herd men, followers of a leader, cannot do that, and so it is always the herd men who win battles and the free men who win wars."

MEDIUM BOOK The Grass Harp, 1945 by Truman Capote

Lesson: don't know

"It would be nice to see my first loves again what is there? a dry honeycomb, an empty hornet's nest, other things, or an orange stuck with cloves and a jaybird's egg - when I loved those love collected inside me so that it went flying about like a bird in a sunflower field."

Landfill Park

LA COUNTY Puente Hills Landfill Park proposal

Of course, this is the first I've heard of it, and from my mom. It's a conversion from the country's largest and deepest landfill into the newest addition of the LA County Regional Park system. What a dream to design a giant slide atop a 500-foot tall pile of unstable, decaying matter which holds within it a lifetime of your own personal waste.
