My family took a trip to the library this afternoon while I was working and, surprisingly, came home with this book on Satchel Paige (surprising only because they don’t typically show much interest in sports figures). Two irreverent comments are in order: 1) I can’t hear the name Satchel Paige without thinking of this “Amazon Echo” SNL skit; 2) The cover image of Paige seen here looks uncannily like current NBA player Dennis Schröder.
Watched a fascinating little documentary on the ‘winterkeeper’ of Yellowstone, Steven Fuller, who has lived in and cared for this National Park for five decades, even during its eerily quiet winter months. Many of the shots are breathtaking.

One friend, one person who is truly understanding, who takes the trouble to listen to us as we consider our problems, can change our whole outlook on the world.
