Happy #NationalDogDay AND #FridayReads! FENRIS & MOTT by @gregvaneekhout. Middle grade #book. Norse myth. Adventure. Humorous. EXCELLENT! (The dogs are excellent, too, and sort of took over photo.)

It's 10:30 pm, and I'm settling in for a read. A Young Adult #thriller. Hot off the presses. NO WAY HOME by @jodyfeldman I've been waiting for this #book. With bated breath. Happy National Book Lovers Day! @SourcebookFire #BookLoversDay

At today's @SDPadres game with Visiting Awesome Nephew and Mr. Summy. These two guys spent last night in the Vegas airport trying to fly back to San Diego from Oklahoma City. A 4.5 hour journey that turned into almost 12 hours! @SouthwestAir #Summer2022

A morning routine at my house: #2 practices his swing with tennis balls. His dog brings them back to him. It's thirsty work. #dogtraining #summer #golf #goldendoodles

Guess whose mail-in ballot hasn't been counted yet (Calif, June 7 Primary Election)? #4's!! Her signature didn't match signature on file. She mailed her Signature Verification Statement yesterday. So, if you see a big change in the final tally on July 15.... :)
