Let's Start With Books

Hi Everyone,
     Summer is almost over.  I had a good summer. Spent a lot time with my family in New England which was a lot fun. Spent time with my children,got to see my sisters,and saw my parents.  The weather was good and that makes a big difference. Got beach time and great sea food.Hopefully I will get back up there this fall.  I am going to try to do several blog posts this weekend and I am going to start with books.  I read more than 20 books but I am only going to mention some of them.
