So I am just done with the pleasant experience of our Healthy Faith Chat, and a less enjoyable discussion of purgatory on FB. I'm ready for some fun stuff! So here are pictures plus- I found a list of "The 100 greatest books of all time", and I will intersperse in the pics just which ones I read- or something like that...
 |
From Thursday afternoon- those unusual things you see, again...
|
 |
Good job, kiddos!
|
#4- Valley of the Dolls- I watched the movie. Loved Tony Scotti!
#7- The Fellowship of the Ring- I may have... the only Tolkien I'm for sure on is the Silmarillion.
#11 All The President's Men- went to the movie on a grade school field trip. Ask me about the "Fly Away" story sometime...
 |
Big ol' varmint...
|
#19- 1984- I think I read at least part of it...
#21- A Brief History Of Time- Yup, still got it.
#22- Fahrenheit 451- read a good chunk in studyhall one year.
 |
"Daddy, you were too slow!"
|
#31- Catch-22- read it, loved it!
#33 Charlotte's Web- definitely watched the movie; possibly read it, too.
#49 Out Of Africa- saw the movie.
 |
Can Misty find the hidden trail? Answer, yes, flawlessly.

 |
Found soccer camp on the other side
|
 |
Bit over grown down by the duck pond
|
#60- The Catcher In The Rye- Read it. Thought it the dumbest book save one I ever read, sorry.
#68- The Great Gatsby- Read it, left me wanting more.
#85- The World According To Garp- read it. Didn't stick with me, though.
 |
Can't get to the river for a drink, sorry
|
 |
Taking a break
|
 |
Me, too
|
#90 Little Women- this one's a bit of a stretch. They did a live-tv play of this, and in my tiny childhood head, I thought it was about "The Little Woman" which was a comic strip in our paper. About a minute and a half of, "What the heck is this?" later, I was out.
#95- The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe- I think I have this, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
That's it. A tenuous connection to 14 of 100. Oh well.
Let's move on to Friday...

"Doggie is concerned..."

Bloody nice photos and some good books mentioned a couple of which I think I have read way back when
ReplyDeleteThere's some that I read way back, some a little closer.
DeleteGood story, and very beautiful photographs of the green área where you live. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour journeys are always fun. I have read all of those books, I think. Sometimes seeing a movie morphs into I read the books.
ReplyDeleteIKR? That was a problem with my memory on some of these.
