We adopted Winchester a year ago this month! As a variation on Wordless Wednesday each week this November, I’ll be posting a photo of him captioned with my suspicions of what he’s thinking. I do not think he thinks this project is such a good idea. Subscribe to Blog via Email Enter your email address to subscribe to this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email.

On November 8, 2014, we brought home an addition to the family. Today we’re celebrating our first year with Winchester! Since he’s only four years old, we look forward to many more with him…even though he’s turned out not to be the dog we thought he was. The day we brought him home, and the first of many hours chilling on the couch with his best friend. Our little captain is on the bridge! There’s […]

We adopted Winchester a year ago this month! As a variation on Wordless Wednesday each week this November, I’ll be posting a photo of him captioned with my suspicions of what he’s thinking. Winchester gets bored when Paul and I stop to chat with neighbors while we’re out with him, especially if the neighbors don’t have a dog of their own.

Well, hello there! It’s nice to be back after a not-entirely-accidental week off that I didn’t tell you was coming. Mid-month tends to be the busiest time at my day job, and during October, it was compounded by a couple of staff departures, transistions, training, and a hiring process. Reading and blogging understandably fell behind with all of that going on, although I did get a couple of reviews for next month submitted to Shelf […]
When she sent me the text, she really didn’t think I’d take her up on it. My sister Teresa is the librarian at the elementary school both of my nephews attended. School started in mid-August, but the library didn’t open for the students right away. She’s been getting it ready for them to start using it this Tuesday, and one of the last tasks she had left was to prepare nearly 100 donated books for […]
I have not dropped off the face of the earth, but after several weeks during which my work ate me alive, I did go on vacation for a week. We’ve just returned from our sorely-needed escape to Seattle and neighboring areas of the Evergreen State (with a day trip across the border to British Columbia). We’re still sorting and editing photos, but I thought y’all might want to see the bookish ones first. You might […]
Please meet newest member of the family! I don’t think he’ll be much of a reader, but he seems to have the makings of an excellent reading companion. Chester is a 3-year-old “petite golden mix” of Golden Retriever and something smaller–Cocker Spaniel or Corgi seem to be the most likely suspects. We met him last weekend, and officially adopted him and brought him home on Saturday, November 8. He came our way via Forever Friends […]
While traveling up and down California’s Central Coast this weekend, Tall Paul and I spent a little time wandering through Cambria. Cambria is the real-life inspiration for Christopher Moore’s fictional Pine Cove, and was in the midst of its annual Scarecrow Festival while we were there. I thought I’d show you some of the participants we encountered along Main Street. Apparently, crows are scared of skeletons. Who knew? With California’s severe drought in mind, the […]
