hot reading ~ blue breezes

hot reading ~ blue breezes

Mercy, it is HOT!! The summer heat wave continues unabated, but at least we are not still in a drought. The lakes are full again, we can water lawns and gardens, and the pools are open for business.

fall reads

Anyone who has spent time around boats on the ocean or just likes a good story well told will enjoy learning about Linda Greenlaw and reading The Hungry Ocean: A Swordboat Captain’s Journey. I read it in the fall of 2000, and it has a place on my favorites shelf. I’ve posted the review and info from the writer’s website… Read More
