This summer I will have the pleasure of my first trip to Hawaii. One of my nephews is going to be married there, and we will go for the celebration and stay six days.
I’ve been thinking about the eight hour flight, and wanted to take some books with me to pass the time. I also plan to find a quiet corner near the pool, so I know that I will need more than one book.
CopCar, whom you may recognize from Bogie’s blog, has recommended “Alias Grace” by Margaret Atwood. Do you have any other suggestions for me?
I love science fiction. I read mysteries, romance, and regular fiction. I’ve just finished “Empire Falls,” (Russo) “Prey,” (Cricton) “Chasing the Dime,” (Connelly) and “Rose” (Martin Cruz Smith), books given to me by a friend.
What would YOU take to read?

Creation, According to the Beagle
A good friend, knowing how I feel about loosing Defer, sent this to me. I don’t know who the author is, or I would willingly give them credit. It reminded me of what you come to learn when you choose to be the companion of a Beagle. THis cheered me up, and I hope it will give you a smile.
Creation, According to the Beagle
On the first day of creation, God created the beagle.
On the second day, God created man to serve the beagle.
On the third day, God created all the animals of the earth to serve as potential food for the beagle.
On the fourth day, God created honest toil so that man could labor for the good of the beagle.
On the fifth day, God created the tennis ball so that the beagle might or might not retrieve it.
On the sixth day, God created veterinary science to keep the beagle healthy and the man broke
On the seventh day, God tried to rest, but He had to walk the beagle.
