You wouldn’t guess it now in the Princeton area, but there’s more rain on the way this afternoon. In fact, rain is in the forecast, to a greater or lesser extent, for the next week or more, mostly in the form of scattered thunderstorms. But you know how it is. It’s a very unstable time of year.

When it pours down rain, you can waste the opportunity by doing what I can’t help noticing a lot of people do much of the day anyway – flip through your phone. OR you could unplug and enjoy some quiet time with a book.

Even if I were Burgess Meredith in a post-apocalyptic world with “time enough at last,” my life couldn’t possibly be long enough to read everything I would like to. And that goes for listening to music also.

Having just polished off the “Kalevala” – the Finnish national epic that inspired so much of Sibelius’ music – and recently posted a photo of my library, reading is much on my mind lately.

Here’s one of many Classic Ross Amico crossword puzzles I compiled while we were all sitting at home during the first wave of COVID in 2020-21, a puzzle that celebrates two of life’s great pleasures – books and music!

To fill out the puzzle, follow the link and select “solve online” at the bottom of the page. You’ll then be able to type directly into the squares. Once you feel you’ve exhausted the puzzle, you’ll find the solutions by clicking on “Answer Key PDF.”

Rain or shine, summer is a great time to catch up on your reading. Pour yourself something cheering, relax, and enjoy!
