I took this picture in Afton, Wyoming, this week.  Yes, it shows a real live Radio Shack store still open in the wild.

One thing hasn't changed … there still aren't any customers. 

Here is a peek at what I've been reading lately. These are the links I saved this week.

Hope you find some interesting and enjoyable tidbits.

Let me know if you read something I'd like … Or if there are other sources I should add to my weekly reading.

Thanks.
