Sorry for the long wait on the next quiz question...here it is, at last. If anyone has been waiting for it, that is! Meg and Emma seem engrossed by Wiggly Willies.This author's final work was discovered by accident 28 years after his death, and is considered his last masterpiece. Who is the author, and what is the book?

Emma wrote: "Meg wrote: "Thoreau. The Maine Woods."Oh. I missed the "what is the book part." 🤦🏻♀️🤣"
😂 I'm probably wrong. It was the first thing that came into my head but of course Walden is considered Thoreau's masterpiece and it was published while he was alive.

I don't know if you've ever heard of Charlie Brown? I grew up on reading them, actually, the book I have is over 50 years old.

Fine, fine. So Linus is reading his Bible, and Lucy walks up to him and asks him what he's reading. He says the Bible. Lucy says, "how can you be reading a book with such big words?!" Linus says, "Oh, when I get to a big word, I just *bleep* right over it." 🤣🤣(And I probably didn't word it perfectly)
Meg wrote: "Fine...goodnight! 🤣🤗"Goodnight! 🤗
I am so thankful this morning! I switched veterinarians and the new vet did a thorough exam yesterday and he found no indication of cancer with Sarah. I am so relieved! The old vet had me convinced my baby was terminal. She misdiagnosed her, so also did not treat her with the proper medications for her actual condition. In any case, that is the main issue that has had me so distracted lately. Maybe my own health will improve a little now.🙏Pammy Jo
