STORYBOOK II by Elena Dorothy Bowman
   Within the pages of this book are stories that my mother once told me; of certain incidences that she remembered. But mostly it is compiled of the memories that were a part of our lives. Doors were never locked friends and neighbors were welcomed anytime they happened to pass by. And it was an era where whenever someone visited at dinner time, an extra plate was always set out for the visitor
to join in the family meal.

Jack's News!
  by your bookstore cat, 
and gossip columnist!


 
Author Andy Nunez has copies of PIRATES and will have them for sale TODAY at the National Outdoor Show in Golden Hill (about 30 miles south of Cambridge, MD.) I was sure glad to hear the UPS man made it. I sure hope all the folks that attend, will enjoy their muskrat dinners.
 
From what I hear the "National Outdoor Show" is always fun. They have a tomahawk throwing contest, Hunting dog trials, shooting competitions, a Muskrat Skinning World Championship, plus The Miss Outdoors and Little Miss Outdoors beauty contests, along with the usual Muskrat recipes, of course.
 
Meanwhile on the home front, Shelley's husband and Roger and Arline's oldest son, David, got home from the hospital last night. They all looked okay to me, but Shelley posted this on her FB page this morning.
 
"Update on Dave: We received a diagnosis yesterday in Baltimore---Renal Cell Carcinoma---it's a tough cancer to beat but is definitely one that can be beat---we will find out today what the game plan is going to be----we are very blessed to be in a hospital that is top notch for dealing with this disease. 
 
"Dave's spirits are good and he is definitely gearing up for the fight-all prayers & well wishes are very much appreciated-thank you all for your caring and your prayers-God Bless."

I don't know what carcinoma is, but it sounds like something bad...they are all acting like it is. I'm sure tired of people pussyfooting around and whispering in corners.
 
Please don't forget to let me know 
what you are all up to! 
Just send me an e-mail with 
 "News for Jack" 
in the subject line, and 
I'll make sure it shows up right here. 
Thanks!
