A note from Reese, our 2 year old Pet of the Week from Woods Humane Society: 

I’m Reese, a 2-year-old Australian Shepherd! I'm incredibly sweet and affectionate, and I love being around people. I am a playful, fun loving gal, nothing makes me happier than playing with my favorite stuffies or carrying a blanket around in my mouth. Fetching a frisbee or ball is my absolute favorite game!

I'm a bit nervous and unsure around other dogs, probably because I haven't had much chance to practice socializing with them. I have had fun playing with a few mellow, experienced dogs who understand when I need my space and respect my boundaries.

I'm looking for a home where I can continue to learn and grow at my own pace. With my loving nature and playful spirit, I'm ready to bring joy and companionship to my new family. Can't wait to meet you! See my pic and get to know me HERE

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A long-abandoned silver mine for sale sounded like an adventure too great to pass up, but it turned into much more—a calling, a community of millions, and hard-earned lessons about chasing impractical dreams.

The siren song of Cerro Gordo, a desolate ghost town perched high above Death Valley, has seduced thousands since the 1800s, but few fell harder for it than Brent Underwood, who moved there in March of 2020, only to be immediately snowed in and trapped for weeks.

It had once been the largest silver mine in California. Over $500 million worth of ore was pulled from the miles of tunnels below the town. Butch Cassidy, Mark Twain, and other infamous characters of the American West were rumored to have stayed there. Newspapers reported a murder a week. But that was over 150 years ago.

Underwood bet his life savings—and his life—on this majestic, hardscrabble town that had broken its fair share of ambitious men and women. What followed were fires, floods, earthquakes, and perhaps strangest, fame. Ghost Town Living tells the story of a man against the elements, a forgotten historic place against the modern world, and a dream against all odds—one that has captured millions of followers around the world.

Ghost Town Living is a thrilling read, but it’s also a call to action—to question our too-practical lives and instead seek adventure, build something original, redefine work, and embrace the unknown. It shows what it means to dedicate your life to something, to take a mighty swing at a crazy idea and, like the cardsharps who once haunted Cerro Gordo, go all in.

Up+Adam Best of Remix!

Earlier this year we talked to Rich Fields the former announcer for The Price is Right, upon the release of his new book! He’s got some great stories. Check it out!
