It was 8/4 and I'd managed to get to the local bookstore to get my  
copy of IV (where the saleslady said it was going to be a hot seller  
because they'd already sold another one earlier that morning).    
Driving home the granddaughter looked at the book upside down and  
said,  "It's about a rocket?"   -   gasp from the driver who took a  
peek.  Yes,  that hearse does look like a rocket.

In other travel news,   airports across the west seem to be stocked up  
and it's often on the front counter but while traveling yesterday I  
was the only one I saw who was reading it.  I had to wait around in  
Grand Forks, ND,  Minneapolis,  Salt Lake City and Fresno.

I'm only a bit more than half way through reading because there was  
much family business to take care of in ND.  But I'm home again now  
and look forward to sticking my nose back in before I go back to work.
