Summer Vacation

Don and I are back in town after a wonderful vacation in Saltspring Island, BC where we spend a good part of July each summer sea kayaking.

Maggie was fine because Courtney took care of her.

We're looking forward to being at the Farmer's Market once again August 6th. We've been busy doing story hour at Generation X, on top of Aspen Mountain and on the mall on most Fridays.

Fraser Fans!

I just love summer! I just did another Farmer's Market yesterday and thought you'd all enjoy this great photo of twins reading two of the Fraser books.

It's too hot to bring Maggie this summer, so I'm relying on my Fraser fill-in stuffed/almost real dog for kids to pet. I'm thinking I'll have to video the antics next market as dogs of diverse breeds love this "animal." He draws quite a crowd and dog owners are totally surprised to realize their "smart" canine cannot tell the difference between a real and "fake" dog. They can't believe it when their dogs are actually afraid of "Fraser." Too funny for words. I promise to get it on video.

U Tube here we come.

For now, please admire these adorable redheads!!
