A visit and a book...

Well, I did meet my daughter for lunch (brunch, mid-afternoon something) yesterday. We tried a new cafe and I would not recommend it, but the company made up for the bad service and food. Plus my granddaughter came with her . I got caught up on all their latest trials and tribulations and successes. The only bad thing was that the visit was too short...but that always happens.

I've been reading The Aviator's Wife (finished it last night). It's about the Lindberghs, Anne especially, but it did bring out some little known information about Charles, such as he had five children by other women (yes, women plural) and what a control freak he was. But it was one of those books where I found myself not really liking the main protagonist (Anne) even though at times I felt sorry for her. Poor little rich girl kept going through my head. But I did have to keep reading (history and fascination) and I would recommend it (by Melanie Benjamin).

until next time...c
