Reading, Rain boots, and Dirt Roads...

What is it about rain that makes you want to throw on your comfiest (oftentimes your most hideous) pair of sweats, bury yourself in a pile of soft, warm blankets on the couch and watch your favorite romance movie?

What is it about rain that makes you want to grab your iPod, throw on some old tennis shoes, basketball shorts and a t-shirt and go run down the dirt road and through the fields?

What is it about rain that makes you want to go dance in the falling rain, messing up your hair and makeup?

What is it about rain that makes you want to turn off the lights and fall asleep to soft music playing?

What is it about rain that makes you want to curl up on the trampoline and read a book you've been dying to read?

Half Price Bookstore

I finally made it back to the farm after being in Gunter for six days!

Whew!

My friends and I decided to go shopping while we were visiting. My favorite part of the shopping trip (besides getting a new pair of shorts!!) was that one of my friends and I went to a special bookstore: "Half Price Bookstore". I was rather astonished to know that the store specialized in books that were half of the cover price. I was rather excited that I purchased three books for the price of one! :)

-- "The Christopher Killer" by Alane Ferguson

-- "Flirting with Boys" by Hailey Abbott

-- "Thwonk" by Joan Bauer

I'll post after I finish one book from my tall, rickety stack.

My first summer road trip

I find myself currently in the summer before my first year of college and I have NEVER taken a road trip that didn't consist of my parents or other parental supervision. I will give the juicy and interesting details of my very first summer road trip when I return home to the farm and my books...
