Welcome to my blog. For me this is a journal and a place to share my photos, reads, thoughts, and missives.

Book Blogs

If you  check out my Blog Roll - which has all of two on it - click on So Many Books. This busy blogger has a list of about 100 book blogs.   She has covered the territory and it is fun to see what some other bloggers are doing. I have only checked out the tip of this iceberg.

Constant Reader

I have not mentioned that I bought an Ipad in July and while I have always been an avid reader I now can call up books on a whim and download them Poof! I have used this blog to post some of my nearby travel photos but since I spent much of torpid July reading I want to include a mention of some of the books I liked. Of course everyone is reading the Steig Larson books - I was actually so engrossed in the series I ordered the latest hardcover  from Amazon when it first came out. That would be The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.  There are so many book blogs out there - I do look at a few now and then to find a new read. If I mention books I want to post a cover photo. I am now adept at posting my photos and so let's see if I can add a Larson cover here.




Ta Da!
 A mystery series set in India is one of my new found favorites. Tarquin Hall is the author and one of the titles is The Case of the Man Who Died Laughing. Sub title - From the Files of Vish Puri, India's Most Private Investigator.

July torpor over!

While driving to Brandywine PA

Wow! Did the whole blazing heat seeking month of July finally end?  Yes, and I posted nada. Must have been zoned out in front of the AC with a non functioning creative spirit.  Well, now it is August and just as it has cooled off a little in NJ - I am headed into the southern hot zone of Alabama for a wedding. Going to see my best friend's son marry a lovely girl.
