I finally uploaded pictures from my camera and thought I better share this one as it goes down as one of my favourite days of the summer. Rob and I explored a provincial park we had never been to before (Voyageur Provincial Park) for the weekend and ended up with a site on the water. It was a rocky/pebbly bottom but just the right depth for us to stick our camping chairs (and side table...I know, sooo luxurious) right in. I spent hours in there reading and didn't even notice each time Rob left to fill up our drink cups!
So, what had me so engrossed...only that book I mentioned earlier - The Pretend Wife. Borrowed from my girlfriend in Hamilton, how could I not pick up a book that asks: "What would life be like with the one who got away?" What if, what if, what if? One of the most dangerous word combinations in our language I think. Anyway, it's not a must-read but was perfect for a camping weekend, and easy enough to put down for a game or two of cribbage!
Mmmmmm the word cribbage looks a lot like cabbage which is making me hungry...gotta go!

As soon as I saw cribbage, I thought of cabbage too! Great minds, right?! So, this may be a silly suggestion, but I am just starting to read "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" and it's pretty amazing - not in terms of literary content, but in terms of a dreamy character/vampire named Diego. Makes me think 'Edward who?!'. Just a thought!
ReplyDeletePS. In the movie "Letters to Juliet" a pretty compelling "What If..." speech is read. It's a must see!
Ha ha ha! It was totally dinner time when I posted that one! I actually started reading "The Short Second Life of Bree Tranner" online when she was offering it free of charge on her website before it's release date, but haven't picked up a copy to finish it...now I'm excited (to borrow it from you of course)!
ReplyDeleteI will eventually see that movie, but you know how me and that Amanda Seyfried aren't so compatible. I could be persuaded if Channing Tatum's in that one too?
