I walked the boys this morning at 7. Then I had a very nice visit this morning with M&D and Jess and Jared. A day otherwise spent doing laundry and so forth.
Also reading on the Kindle, I've started ISLAND OF BONES by Imogen Robertson. This is 3rd of 4 in series featuring Harriet Westerman, mistress of Caveley Park manor, and anatomist Gabriel Crowther, in the 1780s, in West Sussex, England. Here is a description:
Cumbria, 1783. A broken heritage; a secret history...The tomb of the first Earl of Greta should have lain undisturbed on its island of bones for three hundred years. When idle curiosity opens the stone lid, however, inside is one body too many. Gabriel Crowther's family bought the Gretas' land long ago, and has suffered its own bloody history. His brother was hanged for murdering their father, the Baron of Keswick, and Crowther has chosen comfortable seclusion and anonymity over estate and title for thirty years. But the call of the mystery brings him home at last. Travelling with forthright Mrs Harriet Westerman, who is escaping her own tragedy, Crowther finds a little town caught between new horrors and old, where ancient ways challenge modern justice. And against the wild and beautiful backdrop of fells and water, Crowther discovers that his past will not stay buried.
It was published in 2011 and has 384 pages. I haven't done any reading yet today. How does that happen?
I'm hoping Steve will get something for dinner so I don't have to figure something out though if I had to, I could put together hamburgers. Nothing much on TV beyond watching Cops tonight. Tomorrow, on the other hand, we've got TV all night, with endings and beginnings.
Much love,
