Road Trip Photo & Information
Mrs. B said you all had a great time and Stephenie was wonderful. I hope to see more photos posted here (hint, hint) of the activity. I hope you are all enjoying the rest of your summer.
Remember it is a Scott Westerfeld summer and we are discussing his books here this summer with a lunch discussion on Thursday, September 13, 2007.

Summer Reading
What are you reading this summer?
I am about 3/4 the way through A Thousand Splendid Suns. It is an amazing book. I have cried and I have smiled--there is a touch of romance and is all about life in Afghanistan from a woman's perspective starting in the 1970s. It is by the same author as The Kite Runner--Khaled Hosseini. If you haven't read The Kite Runner it is a thought provoking must read much like A Thousand Splendid Suns. I would highly recommend either books.

New Poll--Summer Reading Time
Check out the new poll in the right sidebar. How many hours a week do you usually spend reading during the summer? After you vote you will be able to see the reults.
I love the summer because I read a lot more then I do in the winter. I get to spend time outside in the sunshine with a good book and on rainy days curled-up in my "reading" chair. I can't wait for a few hours of downtime.
