Books by my friends on shelves in Jim Jarmusch movies

In Jim Jarmusch's "Father Mother Sister Brother" (2025), there's a bookshelf in the house of the father (Tom Waits). It reminded me of a bookshelf in Jarmusch's "Paterson" (2016) that features "The Walk", a book by Robert Walser (1878-1956), translated by Christopher Middleton and my friend Susan Bernofsky and published

Visited two of the grandest canyons on this continent

Upon the recommendation of a friend I downloaded a couple of high quality free planes made by members of the MFS community.

First I flew an old Hawker Hunter from Sedona, Arizona to St. George, Utah, passing over the Grand Canyon and dipping down inside like any reasonable pilot would. This plane really take you back to the 1950s with that high pitched whine and these ancient analogue flight controls. Highly recommend trying it out.

The second was an unplanned flight in a C-17 out of Parral, Chihuahua, the homeland of my ancestors (well some of them). Not far from here there's an absolutely massive network of forested canyons called Las Barrancas del Cobre (Spanish: lit. "the ravines of the copper") or Copper Canyon. A beautiful place home to a beautiful people, the Rarámuri.

And then I face-planted into a cliff and dropped my load of 7,000 deer into the canyon below. You're welcome :3
