Finished the Aubrey/Maturin series
      I finished Patrick O'Brian Aubrey/Maturin series this July 4th weekend, closed book number 20(!) and felt a lump in my throat.  It was such a pleasure to read.  I highly recommend it. 
It's one thing where the characters age during the course of a book; it's another where they grow older slowly book after book, each continuing to face their own challenges and failures. If anything, the books teach a lively persistence in the face of a changing life and world full of hard knocks.
I'll try to slow down and just think now, take a break from reading. I hope to have some Sharpcast API stuff out to the world this summer.
