Ian Doescher
My family and I are road tripping to Colorado and New Mexico this summer, so I'm planning to read a few novels that take place in those states: Death Comes for the Archbishop (Willa Cather), Angle of Repose (Wallace Stegner), Bless Me, Ultima (Rudolfo Anaya), and Plainsong (Kent Haruf). I plan to read the complete poems of Phyllis Wheatley, I'm working my way through Isaac Asimov's Foundation books, and I'm about to start Stephen King's Dark Tower series. Finally, I'm consuming as much Brian Doyle as possible -- he's an amazing Oregon author who is currently struggling with a brain tumor (oh, the euphemisms we use). In any case, it promises to be a wonderful, rich summer of reading.

So I planted about 100 red oak trees in a nearby cemetery from the acorns I harvested from said cemetery and I never stopped to think about the effect of dead people on agronomy and agroforestry. What's the over-under on me accidentally raising up a crop of really pissed off Tree Ents?
