Monday evening

Hi guys!

Donna M--I think you do a wonderful job with you photography! I loved the river pictures. Liked the one of the rhododendrons too. We have those here. They bloomed early this year. I have a large white one out front but it is getting old and doesn't bloom as nicely anymore. I also purchased Karen Rose's newest book.

Donna H--yep you can get gout in your ankles. The most common place is the large toe which I have never had but my brothers have and it is very painful. I believe kids will never tire of swing sets. I know I still  enjoy getting on a swing! One of the joys of hanging out with your grandkids!

Amanda--the weather was nice the last couple days. We turned our a/c off and opened the windows. All I can say about the Phils is sigh... What book are you reading for your bookclub?

I am slowly getting back to normal. I still have some swelling in the ankle but no pain. I ventured out to KMart on Friday. Then Sunday we went to Karen's for a visit and to check out the new swing set. We had a nice time.

I haven't done a lot of reading the past few days. I am reading an older book that has been in my tbr for years. It is called Wolf Winter by Clare Francis. I have read another of her books. It is very good but long. It has a little of everything--romance, suspense, history, spys. It is set in the 60s in Norway.

I hope everyone has a good week. I am hoping to get back to the library for my volunteering. I have missed three weeks.
