"The colonel looked scared.  Men usually did, if you [a woman] hurt them a little"--Streets of Laredo


Went on a tree tour in New Toronto.  There were close to fifty people there!  We got cut short a bit by rain at the end.  It went through Samuel Smith Park and the grounds of a former mental institution.


Dinner was McDonald's.


Finally finished Streets of Laredo.  In its own way, it's a great book. Oddly, the epilogue stretched over 50 pages in some thirty chapters! (I can believe that Larry McMurtry had trouble letting go of his characters...)


Saw the DVD of the Kung Fu episode "The Way of Violence Has No Mind," which I remembered seeing back in the 1970s. (It's the one about a gang of Chinese-American outlaws.)
