You recall correctly! I've got some books that are on the TBR list that are still boxed up....rather than dig for them, I'll just use library versions.

See...that was my evil plot. If I got all you folks to join me in the climbing, I thought maybe I could get everybody else to have a larger TBR stack than mine. heh, heh, heh....rubs hands together Looks like my plan is working. :-)

For now Pikes Peak is my goal LOL"
Aw, Retha. And here I thought you had your extreme climbing gear on and were headed straight to Mars. :-) Go get Pikes' Peak!
Retha wrote: "Hi, I am eager to start climbing the first mountain. Now I understand why so few go into space. Perhaps my dream will come true here - working toward Mars"
Hi, Retha! Be sure and send lots of Mars pictures! We want to know all about your journey.
@DigiReader: Well...when your post first showed up, I read it as you having somehow posted before me (LOL) my mistake! If I had a time machine, not only would I like to drop by different eras, but I'd be scooping up first editions of some of the hard-to-find vintage mysteries that I love.

That's so cool that you can respond before I send the message. Have you got a time machine? :-)
Hello, DigiReader! All the important people will believe you when you talk about Olympus. Glad to have you trekking along with us.

Good for your Mum! So glad she's able to enjoy reading again. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't.

I didn't get in trouble. :-) I hope you enjoy Anatomy of Murder--I liked it when I read about 10 years ago....
