At the Main Library

Susan and Kit's picture will appear on display in one of the display boxes fairly soon at the Main Library. Her picture is a part of a series that will be on display demonstrating what people in various aspects of life read. She had to list her top five books of all time and then pick which book she feels everyone should read - she picked To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. Just to note, I will also have a picture in that box and my book that everyone should read is The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Anyway, aside from that, we are going on a three-day mammalogy trip starting on the 27 or so of October. Also, Susan's parents and brother are coming up to visit on November 3, so things are going to be a bit busy towards the end of October.

Work is of course work. Susan's gopher room just got, or rather is currently getting, a paint job, so her gophers are shifted around but otherwise fine. That's all...

I am sure that there is something to be learned from this, but I am not quite sure what it is. Have any ideas? Comment away!! For more of this comic, click here.

Finally, something of a break; moreover, something of a break while outside. We went to Garvan Woodland Gardens this past Saturday (Oct. 1, 2006) and walked around a bit for about 4 hours. Garvan Gardens has about 2 miles worth of hiking trails that feature various plants, waters, and critters. Take a look at our Flickr Site for more pictures of the place - they are marked Garvan"Something" in the title. There may also be some pictures on our Flickr Site of Garvan Gardens from the last time we went, about 2 years ago.

It was quite nice to get out and walk around a bit. We saw a good many birds, a few squirrels, and two chipmunks. Hopefully, we can go back in the near future and see some more.

Have a good Day!
