Not often do we have rain all day long. We began the day listening to the bad weather reports, and learned that severe storms had caused a good bit of damage to several homes north of our area. Trees had been uprooted and roofs torn away by suspected tornadoes. The skies looked threatening, and a few palm fronds on our trees, succumbed, from the constant whipping back and forth. The forecast indicated that rain would most likely continue on throughout the day and into the night. What to do, what to do.The time to read is anytime: no apparatus, no appointment of time and place, is necessary. It is the only art which can be practiced at any hour of the day or night, whenever the time and inclination comes, that is your time for reading, in joy or sorrow, health or illness.~Holbrook Jackson
We should read to give our souls a chance to luxuriate.~Henry Miller
A blessed companion is a book,-A book that, fitly chosen, is a lifelong friend,......a book that, at a touch, pours it's heart into our own.
~Douglas Jerrold
