Well, I would have gone, but I'm getting married this coming week-end. I tried to tell my bride-to-be that I could drive up to Archer City for the auction and be back in plenty of time. She knows me and my faults / addictions all too well and she's been to the store with me before and enjoyed our 2 nights at the Lonesome Dove Inn there. Her considered comment to me was: "Are you out of your mind!" Thankfully my book buying addiction has slackened with age and I decided not go 8-) Looking to seeing more of Finn's adventures there.
Mark also earned a mention in yesterday's NY TIMES coverage: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/13/books/larry-mcmurtrys-book-auction-in-texas.html?_r=1&ref=books
