June 23, 2018, Saturday morning -- Reading Mary Oliver

Having breakfast at the Point Montara Lighthouse Hostel, on the cliffs above the Pacific
He is reading Why I Wake Early, a book of poetry by Mary Oliver. This is the third book he's read by her.

His favorite reading experience is the Once and Future King, by T. H. White. He also enjoyed going through the Father Brown stories by G. K. Chesterton, who he described as a Christian essayist. He described Father Brown as sort of a Sherlock Holmes character and a bumbling Catholic priest. He said the stories are about 20  pages long, witty and they each have a moral take away.
