I'm Back!!!!


Hey Everyone! I'm finally back from vacation so you can start looking for more reviews and fun posts from me starting late tomorrow! I have a bunch of reviews to post this week and so far each book I have read has been terrific so if you're looking for summer reading suggestions, stop back.

I had a blast on vacation. I went for a ride on a 19th century replica sailboat, drank the most awesome triple berry smoothie, and saw the cutest baby ducks while waiting for the ferry as we headed back home. I don't have pictures yet but I hope to share some with you in the next few weeks. In the mean time if you would like to see some of my lighthouse pics (like the one above) from last year's beach vacation click HERE.

    @ Amber- I will definitely be stopping by your blog to check that out! Julie is one of my favorite authors!

    @ Terrie- LOL I hope you get to go on that vacation soon!

    @ Blue rose- Thank you so much!

    @ Suko- This time I didn't visit the lighthouses but I did get some great pics of the sunset over the sound that I will be sharing soon.

    @ Vicki- I can see why you love lighthouses they are so gorgeous. I don't know if you know it or not but they are currently restoring the Bodie Island Lighthouse in NC to make it safe for visitors to climb! I think it's supposed to be finished by 2011.

    Renee, I'm late chiming in here but so glad you're back. Aren't vacations awesome!? Your lighthouses are wonderful. I am a lighthouse fan and considered doing a book or series on them but Colleen Coble beat me to it! Enjoy that sunshine!
