Here is section 13. I was getting worried that it was going to run over, but fortunately that did not happen.

It was interesting to see what was the same and what is different a hundred years later. Most of the roads are better.

Let me know of any changes.

Thanks,

Hi M! Another nice reading, and what a long chapter! Just a few edits please:

Around 57:08 - heard "would not have plastered his walls" should be "would not have plastered his houses"
Around 57:01 - heard "habitations to the external echoes," should be "habitations to the eternal echoes,"
Around 19:20 - repeat of "ensanguined"
Around 15:21 - repeat of "gashes"
Around 15:04 - repeat 3x of "cholla bound"

Sorry about the repeats. I think I drifted off for a few seconds while I was editing. Of course that doesn't excuse my having the wrong words.

Attached is the revised file.

Around 19:20 - repeat of "ensanguined" 19:14 now
Around 15:21 - repeat of "gashes"- 15:17 now

Hope it is okay now.

Creepy! PL OK!

Looks like 2031 will be the next date for the possible monk sighting. Shall we plan on meeting there for a LibriVox outing?

I was doing the math to figure out the next date. It would be a great meet-up event!

Hi Betty! Apologies for the delay in PLing this section.

Another nice reading, and the descriptions were so well written too! Mooney Falls looks beautiful, although I don't think I could manage the hike. I'll just be content to admire from afar.

Just two edits please:

Around 18:06 - heard "With the river floods," should be "With the winter floods,"
Around 8:02 - stumble/repeat on around in "Around the corner of the ledge"

I'd like to read chapter 9, Twenty Per Cent Grades, Forty Per Cent Vanilla, if it hasn't been claimed yet.

Thank you,
