Welcome to Litsy!

Road trip! (Maybe I should have waited til I could photosnap a bridge… ) #Wichita2DightonKS

We went & found the 3 covered bridges that are in Frederick County (there are 6 total in MD). In all our travels we‘ve never seen one. It was beautiful day, fall is slowly starting to peak through here. I‘m slowly getting back into a reading rhythm after months of barely making it through a book. Still have reviews to post, slowly getting there.

I'm starting to really love Kate Grenville. The novel is a tiny bit heavy-handed here and there and to be honest I think one entire storyline could have been left out, but I loved Harley and Dennis, the setting, the detail, the beautiful descriptions. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Love me some nonfiction! #TLT #ThreeListThursday

“Theodore Burr (1771–1822) was the most prominent of America‘s three early nineteenth century bridge-building pioneers, the others being Timothy Palmer (1751–1821) and Lewis Wernwag (1769–1843). All three built superlative long-span timber bridges.
A transplant from northwestern Connecticut, Theodore Burr moved to Oxford, New York in 1793.“

Found in a little free library . The best descriptions of the Aussie country side. Right at the beginning she describes a country pub. I was taken right back to my memories of the many country pubs I have visited long ago. However her long beautiful descriptions at times got a bit too much for me. I wanted the story to move faster. I think in her later books she got the balance right. A great Aussie writer.
