Van Video Productions... my new production company (just kidding) ... but this is my first video in my new van, which will hopefully someday be my new home. A work in progress. Anyhow, reading happened in May, though I wish I had been mentally present to read more. That's me - never quite satisfied... though some of these books were amazing and awesome. ..................
