So Senators Jeff Flake and Bob Corker, who face steep odds of being re-elected, are calling it quits and bashing President Trump, who they see as the problem with politics. Although I have no idea if anti-swamp candidates will win their places, I say good riddance.

The floating book shop enjoyed its best session in a while. Here are some of the books that sold: Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus: Practical Guide for Improving Communication by John Gray; a large paperback edition of The Lord of the Rings trilogy; The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change by Stephen R. Covey; Night Sins by Tami Hoag; Blindside by Catherine Coulter; bios of Audrey Hepburn and Marlene Dietrich; and 3001: The Final Odyssey, the fourth novel in the series by the late Arthur C. Clarke. My thanks to the buyers, and to Herbie, who donated a hardcover thriller by Greg Iles, and to Wolf, who donated a Danielle Steel romance in Russian.
