Book Board Chat

Hi guys! See the talk is about diners/cafes, etc. Years ago, my dad would get up at 5 a.m. and head downtown to shoot the breeze with his cronies (he had a small trucking company and I dunno what the others did) - this went on for years. In Montana, where we lived before coming down here, there was a cafe, but most of us went to a bar to have coffee and gossip. It's just the way it was. The cafe had lots of people passing thru town and didn't have the little cliques you sometimes find in those places. The bars did. lol Kathy Barnett is trying to sign in here and says she's having trouble. I gave her the link and told her to contact curt, but I don't know what's wrong. She said to say hi to everyone until she gets here. Diane, I just had to replace one of the long tubes on one of my wind chimes...we have had horrendous winds here (one place had gusts over 100 mph; ours were in the 60-70 range). Been this way for several days. I love wind chimes and have probably 20 on the eaves of the garage, and a few others on the house and in the yard. I do have a couple of the big ones that sound so pretty...I can't leave an auction without a wind chim if there are any for sale. My roomie gets annoyed, but oh, well.

Have been watching MSNBC (Rachel Maddow et al) - most enjoyable. I used to like CNN but it's changed and looks more like FOX with the blonde talking heads and not much news.

Jo-Anne, hope Jack is doing okay and putting on some weight!! June, I'm out of good authors again, but re-reading some oldies. Any suggestions? You and I seem to like about the same type. I lost all my addresses when I had to get a new computer 3 months ago....I now have Windows 10 but they couldnt' save my email addresses. If you still have mine, send me an email so I can put 'em back!!!
