Quentin's Weeknotes 6/26/22-7/2/22

This Week:

• No Weeknotes from last week…lots of slow moving stuff but not a lot of tangible outcomes. Also, the shadow cast by the new beachhead of Christian fascism made it hard to focus on much of anything.
• This last weekend, my family and I went to Chenango Valley State Park and stayed in some CCC Cabins. It was a delightful weekend of swimming and grilling and getting some fresh air and sunshine.
• Sunday was my and my wife’s anniversary. Love you, baby, now and forever.
• I finished reading Sara Gran’s “Claire Dewitt and the City of the Dead”, one of the best crime novels I’ve read in a long time. Taking place in slightly post-Katrina New Orleans, it follows the eponymous Claire as she attempts to find a man who went missing during the storm, using the methods of her mentor, a strange and philosophical French detective. The book is genuinely weird, full of miracles and coincidences and bizarre connections. I couldn’t put it down and I am looking forward to tackling the sequels.
