Summer Adventure Challenge Blog: Mount Vernon
http://newsummeradventures2008.blogspot.com/2009/10/mount-vernon.html
Thursday, October 1, 2009. We visited Mt. Vernon in late June. It was hot and sticky, though not as hot as Virginia can get later in the summer. I rather missed the cool-ish, arid air of Colorado. We cooled off from our walk from the parking lot inside the visitor's center for awhile and watched a movie about George Washington. After the movie, we walked toward the house, to get in line for a tour. We spent about an hour in line, during which the 3 boys had fun playing with leaves and being silly:. We st...

http://stlawrencefamily.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The St. Lawrence Family. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Friday, March 25, 2011. Cub Scout Blue and Gold 2011. This year's Cub Scout Blue and Gold was fairly simple. We decided to have a Chili Cook-Off! It went well and we had TONS of different kinds of chili! Awards were given out for the best and hottest chili. Unfortunately, mine wasn't either. Oh well, I'm not a fan of hot chili so mine wasn't hot! He did a great job! Way to go, Christopher! Friday, March 25, 2011. It was a quie...

http://corinnesbookreviews.blogspot.com/2010/12/reading-swap-challenge.html
Saturday, December 4, 2010. One of my favorite things to do is just THINK about what book I'll read next! When Melissa of Book Nut. And Tricia of Library Queue. Decided to try a swap of books between the three of us, I WAS IN! Apparently this is called a Reading Swap Challenge, wherein I give each of them a list of five books I think they need to read, and they do the same for me! Now I just have to have them read before 2012. Book List from Tricia at Library Queue:. The Wednesday Wars Gary D. Schmidt.

Gerbera Daisy Diaries: July 2015
http://www.gerberadaisydiaries.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Reviewer of books, theatre and anything else I happen to like. Monday, July 20, 2015. Book Review - Go Set a Watchman. Go Set a Watchman. 35 of 5 stars. Liberal use of the N* word. You cannot compare any book to. To Kill a Mockingbird. Period. Even one written (supposedly) by Harper Lee. So this book was in an impossible situation from the beginning. I did enjoy it. Was it the best book I've ever read? No Was it a financial vehicle for the estate of Harper Lee and her handlers? View all my reviews. Melis...

Gerbera Daisy Diaries: Book Review - Big Little Lies
http://www.gerberadaisydiaries.com/2015/01/book-review-big-little-lies.html
Reviewer of books, theatre and anything else I happen to like. Sunday, January 25, 2015. Book Review - Big Little Lies. 5 of 5 stars. This was such an engrossing read and a brilliant look at the complications and secrets of a seemingly ordinary neighborhood and the families that are brought together by a public elementary school. School fundraisers are brutal - and in this case, deadly. And PTA moms are very, very mean. Couldn't put it down. View all my reviews. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). One Pe...
