BLOGGING: It's Tuesday, Where Are You?
We enjoyed a Victoria Day long weekend, so today is like Monday here in Canada. The weather on the east coast was lovely on Friday and Saturday and then rainy Sunday and Monday. We were outside on Saturday around the yard enjoying the sun and then luckily we had planned a trip for the last two days to Crystal Palace in Moncton, an indoor amusement park. Lovely weekend all around.
In reading, I am in Cleveland, Ohio with Morris Bird III. Heartland America during the 1944. (The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread by Don Robertson)
I am also learning about the Tipping Point in culture. As a child who was the first generation to grow up with Sesame Street, I am looking forward to that chapter. (TheTipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell)

Sounds like a great holiday.
