    Love your list: Me, I am reading every book about bee keeping, Secret Life of Bees and even Little Beach Street Bakery; I read every book on Ernest Hemingway's wives (many wives); and I give all old books to charity, go to library instead...and finally I wish I still had my Nancy Drew books! Thanks ��

It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move.
