Busy Weekend
I scored a trifecta this weekend:
1. Listend to a talk from Michael Chabon, a Pulitzer Prize winner, who told a fictional memour and then described the techniques he used when writing the tale. Overall, I rated the story as a "B" and the lesson on writing as an "A+". Despite the long fictional ramble, it was a very enjoyable evening.
2. Friday night we partied down at the Teton County Library Winter Ball. A night of drinks, food and frieds at the Four Seasons with all proceeds going to the library foundation.
3. Saturday night we listend to Wade Davis, a noted anthropologist and ethnobotanist whose work has usually focused on the observation and analysis of the customs, beliefs, and social relations of indigenous cultures in North and South America, particularly the traditional uses and beliefs associated with plants with psychoactive properties. He gave a facisinating presentation about the global loss of culture.
Sunday night I went to bed early to catch up on lost sleep.
