October 14-2018 Newsletter

The October 14-2018 newsletter is coming to you from the annual Parke County Covered Bridge Festival today. It’s great to be set up with Cheryl & Mike once again. Here are a couple of pictures of our areas.

It’s been a great festival so far even though it has turned off colder.

Keep an eye on the blog if you are interested in new pictures & info from the festival.

Several past newsletters are on the blog.

Let’s get right into the newsletter goodies.

What to Read

Since I was heavy into festival prep, I was a little behind on my actual reading this week. I only finished 2twobooks. One was an ARC that will be released soon. So I am offering you a few suggestions of recent discoveries that are on my To-Be-Read soon list.
