My sister and I had planned a trip to visit my mom that takes us through Vegas. A major roadway leading into Utah is closed due to the flooding from the storm. We are wondering and praying they get the road functional again. Your cloud photo is stunning!<br />I can totally relate to finding all of sorts of odds and ends stuck inside your books. I tear pieces of paper and make bookmarks for places I love to go back to (especially in my bible). I really need to purge it out, the bindings aren't too happy with me I am sure! ;) <br />Have a beautiful rest of the day!Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423246756894055585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-56488893490824487552014-09-10T10:01:22.559-07:002014-09-10T10:01:22.559-07:00What an amazing shot!!

I don't want to pile more and more into our house, but some books are just KEEPERS. I know you feel the same way. It's actually chilly here today. I have my book club and I'm hoping it'll be interesting. I'll let you know.<br />Take care! Soon you'll be getting some fall weather.

The books around here just keep multiplying.:-) I have to be sure those shelves are packed tightly!:-) Right now, I have three that are in the process of being read. Someone wondered how I keep them straight.:-)<br /><br />That is a neat picture of that hawk. Good for you for giving him that impossible challenge!<br /><br />I don't think I've heard about Hurricane Norbert. I have heard that California needs rain in the worst way!

Now I check them out online and send them to my Kindle if I have to read a bunch to research for a book I'm writing. If I can, I buy them, but my budget doesn't always permit.

No you probably don't want bears or wild cats either. Bears can be really destructive when they get hungry! Wish I could send you some of our rain.
