A daily journal of our lives (begun in October 2010), in photos (many taken by my wife, Evie) and words, mostly from our home on Chautauqua Lake, in Western New York, where my wife Evie and I live, after my having retired from teaching English for forty-five years in Hawaii, Turkey, and Ohio. We have three children, seven grandchildren, and one great-grandson, as you will notice if you follow my blog since we often travel to visit them. Photo from our porch taken on 11/03/2024 at 7:07 AM

HELL IS EMPTY: CRAIG JOHNSON
In this, the seventh Longmire series, Walt is tested to his limits in his attempt to capture Raymond Shade, a Crow but also a child killer. After Shade and a group of convicts are transported through a snowstorm, Walt finds out that a couple of troopers are killed and Shade and the convicts have escaped. Walt pursues Shade and the convicts up Deep Horn Mountain into the icy hell of the Cloud Peak Wilderness Area. On the way, he encounters snowstorms, blizzards, windstorms and is seemingly guided by Indian mysticism. The last couple of hundred pages are a long haul, somewhat repetitious and overdone but Walt gets his man.
