My concern is the empty chimney hole with the roofing missing around it and further down with the wet stain. I'd fear a rotten roof, weakened floor and embedded mold. They painted it to look crisp and clean but it might be a tear down. Still, if she owns the property that's a great deal.

You usually only find sea urchins, especially ones this big, way down on a minus tide. But this one got knocked loose from the bottom and the tide floated it to the surface. It's about the size of a coconut.

A pencil #drawing of an orange that looks so realistic, you might think it’s about to roll off the page!

I wish I could do alt text. My signal barely goes through (after multiple tries) with regular text + photo. It's a wonderful element of Bluesky. I'll keep trying.

Against a dark background is a large metal box, reminiscent of a mausoleum. In front of it are two park benches.

The bad news: The Covid picture book bubble has burst. It's harder to get author-only picture books agented. The good news: Author-illustrators are still in demand. It's hard to find illustrators so anyone who does both has a "lighter" path to publication. #WritingCommunity youtu.be/vv1CKCpRVQw?...

Aroon's good boy Finn wasn't left out of the wedding party.

A wedding in wine country. They and the setting are so beautiful it looks a movie, as my mom said.

The bride and groom, Aroon and Aleem.

My sister @meganaroon.bsky.social walking my beautiful niece down the aisle at the loveliest and most romantic wedding I've ever seen. (Official wedding photos in this thread.)

I'm sure I will, I love British cozies. The ex-nun investigator makes it intriguing.

Excellent review (thanks for the heads up that Agatha Raisin fans will like it). Note to self: get this book.

I love finding beach glass, especially the rare colors. My dog got jealous, though.

Wow, found a cobalt blue piece of beach glass. That's a rare color to find. Made my day!

Time and tide wrecking someone's Alaskan adventure. Shipwrecks are a common sight here.

Probably a Bibleforscher, or Bible Student (Jehovah's Witness). The Smithsonian Holocaust Museum has a floor devoted to them. They were executed & put in concentration camps for refusing to join the Nazi military or make the salute.

Or, if you're writing a memoir: "I remember..."

#quotes 😌🙂

It's not generally remembered except by people who went to school in Alaska, but the U.S. did fight a battle on American land: Battle of the Aleutian Islands.

Hopefully not! A couple people have Starlink here, but it doesn't work well in this area.

I don't know if they do. I got Internet in 2015, but it's always been pretty sketchy and I can't do much online that requires a lot of security, like online banking and government websites.

That's wonderful. I felt so awful for those poor people. Our mail is carried by float planes and is held up by the weather so there was no way to get their checks to them promptly.

I work at a rural post office, mail 2x monthly. A neighboring town's mail accidentally ended up at my P.O. including nearly 20 social security checks. Those poor folks had to wait 2 weeks before they got them. Apparently some rural, elderly folks don't know how to set up direct deposit.

I think this was his most famous dance in the 80s.☺

Wasn't Saturday Night Fever (Travolta) in the 70s?

I enjoyed your review especially this part, since I love the between the World Wars era. It convinced me to give the series a shot. Thanks!

Trying to get home before dark towing firewood logs.
