They are there to commemorate Shackleton's Boat Journey.

I'd say be careful about keeping such lists. An Alaskan weatherman got himself & his knitting wife arrested for keeping a list. Of course their list was of people they wanted dead. But once Big Brother gets started reading our lists, you can figure it will be as easy to censor someone for thought-assult as it is for thought-murder.

Maybe better keep a list of blessings instead.

I find the minimalist movement very, very attractive. But I have this question: how can you bear to get rid of the books you own that aren't digital yet??

I love staying in Forks. The gorgeous primal ocean & rainforests are my Mecca. My family is pretty faithful to the Cabins at Three Rivers, so I've never stayed at this Pacific Inn Motel. And now I never, ever will. That whole dark, life blood draining motif disgusts me.
Yet I suspect there will be no shortage of requests for the theme room.
