where we go from here 

ok all, so, I am about to leave for 4 weeks on my road trip with Neal. we're leaving Sunday I think. Being able to use the internet will be questionable and if at all, it will be unpredictable and sporadic. I also know MJ is on vacation and behind in her reading. And I don't know if Ryan has any desire to discuss City of God with us or try to catch up. And I don't know where Dwight is in reading and such. so here is my suggestion: Book X concludes the first major section and theme of City of God. Book XI picks up with the second part to the work which shifts the focus a bit. Do we think it would be a good idea to take a hiatus until the fall, around when we start back at St. John's, like for a month or something, and allow all of us to catch up (or get ahead) and so that no one will miss out on conversations? Thus we can start in Book XI in the fall, and perhaps even return to some of the things we discussed in Books I-X. What do ya'll think?
