I'm in North Texas. Wildflowers have just started blooming...and so have my roses.

[Ter'e]

Christine,
Two of my bestest friends live fairly close to you. One in Issaquah and one in White Salmon. The girl in WS writes the most beautiful poetry. She and I have been penpals (if you can imagine) for 38 years.

Lots of very talented folks in your neck of the woods.

[Christine]

@Christine and Ter'e: I have the Pacific Northwest high up on my places to visit before I die.

@Amy: Amy, I'm jealous. All I can say is there are only 2 more snow piles to melt in my neighborhood.

Minnesota Chris.

Hi Ter'e,
Penpals for 38 years -- that's amazing! The area around White Salmon is beautiful. She's lucky to live there.

Hi to Minnesota Chris, too. Hope your snow piles melt soon and you can come explore the PNW! It's been a harsh winter this year in the Midwest--we've been hearing "we're sick of snow" complaints from friends and family in WI. :)

I'm from Chicago, IL, but currently live in Ottawa, IL.

[Lorrea - WhatChaReadin'?]

Chicago is on my To Travel To list!

[Daniel]

I love Chicago!

[Holly]

:D

[Autumn]

I really want to go to Chicago. I want to hear that accent!

[Christine]

Chicago is definitely one of the best big cities to visit. The "River architectural" tour and Wrigley Field are two of the many great things to visit there.

Minnesota Chris

[Ter'e]

Where in CA? I am a native.

[Christine]

That's exciting, Rita! I wish you safe and uneventful travels. Are you going to play audiobooks--that is one loooong drive.

Minnesota Chris

[Christine]

Aaron, the book I'm reading now called The Troop takes place on Prince Edward Island, pretty close to you, I think.

[Tracy]

I live in Suffolk, UK. It's quite rural but we are only half an hour away from Cambridge and just over an hour from London so we can get to busy and built up when it's needed. I like the mix.

[Maryann]

Hi I'm Maryann and I am happy to be part of this group. I live in London and getting set for bed. I am keen to share in your vast and interesting choices in crime and mystery thrillers. I am also an aspiring writer and hope to be enriched from the group's diverse literary knowledge and expertise

I'm sorry to say I had to look Tunisia up on a map to see where exactly it's located. The beaches and water sound lovely. May I say your English is quite good! :)

[Aymen]

Thank you Perry, i try to improve my English, we don t study it much at school because our second language is French, i read French translations but i started reading some English versions lately, i m trying :)

[Aymen]
