And here we are in the Summertime at 107 degrees and so on into dehydration. Opened the show with the Yolo Mambo band recentlty of the Davis Music Fest.  And the song selected was "Summertime."  See how the Summertime theme just trucks right along?  The reading today is from the "Mark Twain's Notebooks."  Twain wrote books, scrapbooks, and notebooks (and probably something else, too).  

So we hear shorter selections and even short selections.  Listen for the different styles of writing used by Twain.  He was a newspaper reporter with facts, he was the off the wall humor guy, and he later was an older man grateful for his amazing life.  Let's listen to some fine writing by Twain.  There are some jewels in the Notebooks.  Let's not miss them.
