In anticipation of The Avett Brothers concert on October 25th, I have been writing a series of blog posts connecting some of their lyrics to words of some of my favorite authors.

If you want to help the parks, the most important thing you can do is simply go to them – and take someone with you. – Lassoing the Sun – Mark Woods
Mark Woods is a columnist for the Times-Union in Jacksonville, Florida. His book, Lassoing the Sun, began as a book on the National Parks but turned into something more. I highly recommend it. My online book club read it a few years ago and Mark graciously joined us in our online book chat. I think he would like The Avett Brothers.
