I’ve been volunteering at a local nature preserve where there are motion cameras set up, and the video captures have been illuminating: coyotes, mule deer, bobcats, bears... and of course there are dozens of animal cam vids on TKSST. So when we discovered signs of animal activity in our back yard, we wanted to know: Opossum? Skunk? Raccoon? 
High-end night vision, motion-triggered trail cams can be expensive, so I was really happy to find this affordable, highly-rated Vikeri 4K 32MP trail cam. Its settings tailor resolution, activation speed, video length and more, and it comes in a weather-proof case with a sturdy strap, SD card, and starter batteries. (I did, however, also order more rechargeable Eneloops.)
This nature-observation tool is a fantastic educational activity for the whole family, and it was ridiculously fun to find a few videos waiting for us after the first night. 🦨

I've been experimenting with new aspect ratios and this wide one was perfect for a low tide seascape. It is 20 x 10 cm (7.87 x 3.94 inches) and you can find it at https://www.etsy.com/listing/1434248360/small-seascape-painting-on-canvas-board

‘I’ve been in so many ensembles where I’ve been, like, the horny mom. Or the horny divorced mom. And I loved all those parts! But there’s something about this where it was women — and this one beau…

Christopher Duett, Producer and Host of the Criminal Perspective Podcast, wrote that off all the inmates he have corresponded with, Barry Loukaitis is the only one whom he considers a "friend". He also tweeted he used to love talking with him as he is extremely intelligent and self-deprecating.
Barry wrote him that he's fantasized about going back in time, trying to reason with his younger self. "Also, cliché but true; I needed a role model."

I've loved Marion Chesney since I was in Middle school, but I never got a chance to read this series. It wasn't in my library system and this was long before Amazon, so I'm catching up now. 
The year is 1800 (early for Regency Romance but relevant) and Hannah Pym has just received an inheritance from her recently deceased employer of over 30 years. Deciding to throw caution to the wind, she aims to travel. To Exeter. In winter. On the flying coach she's seen outside her windows so many times. On the stage she meets Emily, a naive spoiled brat who is running away from an arranged marriage, and Lord Ranger Harley, Emily's affianced husband, as well as other characters like Mrs. Bisley, Mrs. Bradley, Mr. Fletcher, and more! When the weather forces them to seek shelter at an inn, the sparks fly... as do the bullets.
Tumblr media
So... I really liked this book. I did. I really liked Hannah Pym. She’s a wonderful character with complex wants and motivations. She’s older (in her forties) but not reduced to a caricature.
But she’s not the romantic interest in this book (there’s hints of a future romance with her former employer’s brother but that’s definitely not realized in this book). And because she’s not the romantic interest, and this book devotes itself to not one but two romances, is where it falls down.
First off, we don’t meet any of the romantic leads until over a quarter of the way through the book. That’s a bit too late.
Tumblr media
Secondly, the “main” romance felt more secondary than the “B-plot” romance. Emily and Harley should have been the primary couple. But most of the time when we see them, they’re sniping at each other with Emily being a spoiled brat most of the time while Harley tries to correct her. But it kind of falls into Mansplaining territory at times. (Other characters try to wash the spoiled brat off of Emily too including Hannah Pym but some of the harder points come from the male lead.) The B-plot romance between the wealthy recently-widowed Mrs. Lizzie Bisley and the impoverished solicitor Mr. Fletcher is much more plot relevant. Not only does she have a total of three suitors vying for her. The climax of the whole novel relates to her plot. Emily and Harley are supporting characters in it.
Thirdly, I wasn’t rooting for Emily and Harley to end up together. I liked Harley. The fact that he was so awesome to Hannah Pym was definitely a plus in my book. Emily just annoyed me. A lot. A lot a lot. So when they decided to get married at the end of the book, I had a hard time believing it.
Tumblr media
So for that, even though I enjoyed the book, it loses a star.
Other nitpicks that didn’t affect the rating... like the fact that there were three characters whose last names ended in "-ley" two of which were Mrs. B---ley. Confusing. Second the author uses third person omniscient and jumps from POV to POV within the same paragraph at times. Most of the time you're in one of the three lead's heads... but it will jump around as the author decides she wants to share something. It's not my preferred method and as an editor I actually advise my clients NOT to do this. But this was written in a different time.
Things that kept it from being rated lower. The characters. OMG the characters.  For all that I was annoyed at Emily, I loved the well roundedness of all of the main and supporting cast. They were individuals. Real.
Tumblr media
I also loved the realism of the time, and the insights I got into the class structure. Seriously Chesney did her research and it showed.
I liked the plot... particularly the B-plot. I liked the women supporting women theme of the book.
I read this book in a day, I liked it that much. So because of that, this gets...
Four Stars.     
Tumblr media
If this is your jam, you can get it here. Frankly I’d see if your library system has it... it’ll likely be on Hoopla.

I’ve been having fun with some map making recently; I’ve always liked a good meandering river, especially since spending time in Louisiana last semester for fieldwork.
