The downside of public libraries...

Sadly a book that has been enjoyed in the family for quite a bit has to be returned to the library today (we just exceeded our renewals). It is JAPANESE TALES. It was edited and translated by Royall Tyler. Check it out if you have the chance

45 Years after I HAVE A DREAM

R.I.P. Dave Freeman

Although it happened over a week ago, I just read about it today. My prayers and thoughts to his family.

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Dave Freeman, co-author of "100 Things to Do Before You Die," a travel guide and ode to odd adventures that inspired readers and imitators, died after hitting his head in a fall at his home. He was 47.

Freeman died August 17 after the fall at his Venice home, his father, Roy Freeman, told the Los Angeles Times on Monday.

An advertising agency executive, Freeman co-wrote the 1999 book subtitled "Travel Events You Just Can't Miss" with Neil Teplica. It was based on the Web site whatsgoingon.com, which the pair ran together from 1996 to 2001

Whew....

Just finished THE MARK(The Beast Rules the World) and I can't wait to listen to the next one in the series. I'm looking around for my library card now so I put it on hold. Hopefully it will be here by the weekend.

I don't think I ever wrote about

JOHN'S STORY. I finished it a bit ago and it was an Audiobook I checked out from the library (my favorite place). It is about the John in the New Testament and it written as him telling his story. Pretty interesting. I listened to it at bedtime and found it better than watching the news.

Just finished The Indwelling

I must admit this one left a pretty good cliffhanger and I can't wait to get the next one in this Left Behind series - The Mark.
