The Case of Grover and the Terrifying Scarecrow

As we were walking the dogs this morning, we passed the Ranger Station (translate, office) of the RV Park and they had these precious stuffed dolls dressed like scarecrows. Well, Grover started his (not)-ferocious barking and backing away from the dolls. We would stand by the doll and call him; he would get only so close and then start backing up and barking. It was SO funny -- Carl and I were in stitches!

Later on in the afternoon, when it was light, we took them for another walk and Grover made his final statement: he peed on the doll!

Things I've Enjoyed Reading Lately

  • "The Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson -- This is a true story of the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago. It is true crime and history which reads like a novel. I was fascinated with the story of the Fair from inception to conclusion; and horrified at the crimes being committed at the same time. I was also amazed at the people who attended, the products introduced there and the far-reaching implications of the Fair. This is a great read.
  • "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruene -- This is a poignant tale of life with a train circus during the Depression years told by 93-year-old Jacob who was a vet with the circus. You will be entertained, appalled, educated, and treated to a feel-good ending. I definitely recommend this read.
  • "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett -- this was a re-read for me; I read it when it first came out in 1989 and proclaimed then that it was the best book I'd ever read. I just learned that Follett was coming out with a sequel so I decided to read this one again so I would be up to speed with the characters when I read the sequel. I still think it's the best book I've every read.
  • "Do You Want To Know a Secret?" by Mary Jane Clark -- I picked this up accidently (thinking I was picking up a Mary Higgins Clark) and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a page-turner and I absolutely was shocked at the ending!

Words I'm Trying to Live By . .

"This world's gone crazy and it's hard to believe that tomorrow will be better than today; Believe it anyway." -- Martina McBride from her new single, Anyway "Differentiate between facts and fear." -- fortune inside fortune cookie "Bloom where you are planted." -- unknown "Live well; love much; laugh often" -- unknown
