Today's book is Danny Gospel by David Athey, from Bethany House PublishersOnce he'd performed in his family's gospel band, but now most of his loved ones have passed on. Still known as "Danny Gospel," he is living a sedate, quiet life as a postman in a small Iowa town. Soon his tranquil existence is broken open by--a dream, a vision, a sign?--a beautiful woman he is sure is his "beloved." Logic and sense tucked safely out of harm's way, Danny launches a quest to find his true love. Always good-natured, he is a hero on a journey--dreaming impossible dreams and, no matter how much he must suffer, pursuing romance and heavenly glory.
But is his quest really for a vision of beauty--or is it a journey through pains too deep to name and emotions too raw to feel?

every year our church has Character Week, which is like VBS. my children are involved: some teach, others learn and I tend to be in charge of crafts. it's a long, busy but fun week :)
Wow, I remember being asked in a survey about different covers for this book.
It's actually winter here at the moment so I want to finish a quilt that I was making.
Next summer I plan on extending our vegie garden.

I guess the biggest thing that I am doing this summer is getting all of my mercury fillings in my mouth replaced..........the fun will start Tuesday the 10th.
This summer, maybe more laid back, and stay at home.
I may try to visit my aunt, and a friend is suppose to visit me, and I will be sitting on my front porch enjoying my flowers, and books!
This book sounds very interesting.

One thing I plan to do is stay in bed until noon on purpose. Only to get up for food and drink. Just came up with that idea and I like it.
It sure seems like a book I can read. My summer, it is already half over. I have been read like hell and writing a lot of poetry.
