Hi everyone! Thanks for commenting after my long silence. I hope to post a real post soon. That picture is taken in Bar Harbor, Maine, where Hobgoblin and I just spent a week. I was reading while Hobgoblin did some beach combing. I actually almost got trapped by the tide, which is something I forget about, not being much of an ocean person!
Glad you’ve enjoyed your summer teaching and vacation. Just curious what you were reading among the rocks. Welcome back Dorothy. I look forward to reading your summer reading posts, but of course… no pressure. Have a good one, whatever’s left of it.
Litlove — the photo was taken on a lazy day with no biking in it, but other days, we were out there pedaling furiously! π
Arti — I was reading Manservant and Maidservant, the Ivy Compton-Burnett I was supposed to post on for the Slaves of Golconda. Oops! I really enjoyed it and may post briefly on it.
"β¦whatever these futilities of mine may be, I have no intention of hiding them, any more than I would a bald and grizzled portrait of myself just because the artist had painted not a perfect face but my own. Anyway these are my humours, my opinions: I give them as things which I believe, not as things to be believed. My aim is to reveal my own self, which may well be different tomorrow if I am initiated into some new business which changes me." Michel de Montaigne
"If I am asked to explain why I learned the bicycle I should say I did it as an act of grace, if not of actual religion." Frances E. Willard
Yay! I’ve missed you. Keep stopping by hoping that my Google Reader deal just forgot to pick up your newest post. Hope to hear more from you soon.

It’s wonderful to see you back, Dorothy! Now, if that photo had a bike in it somewhere, I might be more convinced…. π
