Why is my LJ client software not working? Very irritating.
As today is Monday, my evening smidgen of time is devoted to Rob's and my weekly money meeting rather than writing. All progress on the book today therefore was limited to research reaching done during lunch at work. I am beginning Moira Harris' book Fire and Ice: The History of the St. Paul Winter Carnival. I note that she has talked to Bob Olsen, the St. Olaf alum who has written a book I must find on the history of St. Paul Winter Carnival ice palaces. Oddly enough, Moira Harris did not mention it in her bibliography, and yet if she interviewed Olsen, she must have known about it. She also interviewed Larry Millett.
I believe I will try calling some of the local historical societies tomorrow.

Sorry, just always have that reaction to seeing my name in print when it's, well, not me, esp when connected to a book. Just a weird little moment, like when you're climbing stairs and put your foot on a riser that isn't there....
