The ladies had fun going to the movies. We saw the new Harry Potter Movie. Very good movie. My favorite character is Hermoine. She studied completely while attending Hogwarts.  She loves unconditionally and always her bag of tricks ready for all occasions. She plans ahead if things go wrong. The dragon scene was awesome. As I tell my kids Dragons are really the good guys just misunderstood or treated poorly. I recommend the movie. WB

“Over the hill and through the woods to Grandmothers house we go.”

James saves the moon made to Vancouver, WA to Grandmas and Grumpas house. We are having a delightful time visiting and signing books here. The weather has been perfect. We are enjoying family, friends and fun. Aunt Eva is having a blast with her nieces.WB

Wow the Aquatic Center was great fun for the kids today. Slides, pools, obsiticle course, and more. We spent the day here today. I got some editing done on my second story “Helga Returns”.  When I returned to my hotel room the illustrator Kelly Murray sent me the final 4 illustrations for this story. I asked for some minor changes and may need one more. I have to see how they look as I add them to the book. Such fun. It is so cool to work anywhere. The kids and I came up with a possible new story. The Monster at the Aquatic Center. It jumps up and squirts mud and slime at kids then disappears. I wrote down some notes. The locals said don’t build the pools in this swap area the swamp monster will not like it. Needs work. We had fun thinking of ideas. Might be fun to develop stories as we travel around the country. Have a great day! WB

Stopped at the Hoo Doo Tavern/Cafe in Harvard, ID

Really good milk shakes. Nice Garden area.WB

We had a lovely time stopping at the Dredge as everyone calls it locally. It is a Dredge Pond. I believe a long time ago Logging created the Dredge and now it a beautiful spot. You can see the water where it comes under the ground to create the pond from creeks in the mountains. The kids had fun tossing and skipping rocks.n Good fishing spot. WB

Thursday my book and I had dinner at Mikey’s with a couple of co-workers from our old days at the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. We had fun talking about all the crazy stuff and telling tall tales. Got caught up on the folks we worked with. We sure had fun together working at the paper. We were like family. All are doing well with other careers. Life in a University Town. WB

Hello, we arrived in Moscow in the evening yesterday. The city looks great. Downtown was busy. Some fun new hot spots. So enjoy the pedestrian first in Moscow. Here all vehicles must yield for pedestrians. I use to work at the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. I held the title Circulation Office Manager. I loved working for the paper. WB
