Does anyone know if APS has a drivers Ed course? I can't seem to find any info about it and we need a cheap place for our 15 year old.

Down the Santa Fe Trail and into Mexico: The Diary of Susan Shelby Magoffin

House of Rain by Craig Childs. Great read for anyone interested in the ancient civilizations of the southwest.

The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven. (Which, by the way, is not at all about the Lone Ranger and Tonto fist fighting in heaven.. very disappointed, because that sounded like a good read...)
