The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes | Arthur Conan Doyle

One day late. #oops

When you're rereading the entire canon of SH with #NoPlaceLikeHolmes, and these are your favorite stories/books of ALL time, how can you not pick them again as your favorites? For me, this is the definitive book with the definitive stories. Most of the classic Holmes' tales are in this one. #sherlocked

#12daysofchristmas @Andrew65

Mollyanna Great choice 😉 3mo

dabbe @Mollyanna #youtoo! 🩵💙🩵 3mo

Andrew65 Another classic. 3mo

dabbe @Andrew65 Indeed. 🤩 3mo

Phoenix Noir | Patrick Millikin

Only @dabbe and I get to complain about the heat !Or Death Valley people or other Phoenicians! Note 100 at 11 pm. This is WTF heat

CindyMyLifeIsLit Is this Phoenix? We‘re at 80 at 11 pm, so you have us beat! Our temperature is weirdly low right now—only 92, 93 instead of 98-100. Maybe it‘s a result of the hurricane! 🤷‍♀️ 9mo

Texreader That‘s brutal! I‘ve definitely experienced those baking nights here in south Texas but it‘s downright cool at 80 here, probably because of the after effects of the hurricane. 9mo

Leftcoastzen @CindyMyLifeIsLit yes , when I was a kid here it could be 104 & go down to the 70s at night. No more , between huge amounts of development & climate change probably never again. 9mo

Amiable My friend who lives in Phoenix is always defensive when I ask why she lives in the desert—she says it‘s not so bad because it‘s a “dry heat.” I say so is the heat that comes out of my oven but I‘m not sticking my body in there! 😖 Although she does have a point —humidity plays a large role in the “misery” index when the temperatures rise. It‘s been in the high 80s/low 90s here in CT, but with humidity levels over 70%. It‘s difficult to breathe. 😫 (edited) 9mo

AmyG I am off to Las Vegas. It‘s 116 today. @Amiable I agree….humidity makes life so much worse. 9mo

Leftcoastzen @Amiable well , that‘s gone too . When I was a kid humidity would be 12% or less . When I posted last night 29% humidity. Used to be our monsoons would come & go fast , along with humidity, no more. 9mo

AnnCrystal Oh boy! 🌡️🙏🥺. 9mo

Leftcoastzen @AmyG be careful & stay hydrated! Vegas has had so many heat records lately. 9mo

Allbymyshelf It‘s so awful! I feel ya. It‘s 112 in Sacramento today. Stay cool 😎 9mo

dabbe I'm with ya! Some data from the AZ Republic:
√“Phoenix heat experts expect 2024 to break the record for hottest summer in history.“
√“At Sky Harbor Airport, NASA found the pavement to be around 140 degrees.“
√“This year, we‘ve already had 23 days of excessive heat, meaning we will outpace previous records.“
Plus, humidity AND high dew points but ZERO rain, unlike our monsoons of old, which would bring some respite. It's frickin' hell here. 🔥

Hooked_on_books At first I looked at thought, 113 in phoenix in summer? Seems common. But not at night like that! That‘s awful! 9mo

ShelleyBooksie Wow!! That's wild heat. 9mo

Leftcoastzen @readmyeyes Sac can be shocking hot at times, love that town! Summer heat is why I never hit the fair when I lived in NorCal 9mo

Leftcoastzen @dabbe stay near the air & hydrated! As a kid I remember 105/74 much less population & buildings then. + climate change 9mo

@Eggs (thanks for the tag! 😘

I've been out of town, so I'm a tad behind.
1. If I helped to make one child a better reader and writer after teaching for 28 years, I would happily say #myworkisdone.
2. My idea everything would have been to not have had to work but to have been able to use my teaching skills as volunteer at my local library, maybe helping adults learn how to read.
3. Retirement? #heckya! 🤩

KadaGul @dabbe #1 I deeply respect ✊🫡you and your efforts. 10mo

Eggs #1 - I‘m sure you affected many young lives 💙!! 40 years for me - phew 😮‍💨 10mo

dabbe @Eggs You WAY MORE than me! 🤩😀😘 10mo

bthegood I still remember my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Vanderbrink, she helped me fall in love with learning. You may not know when and how you reach people - but you do 💝 10mo

Eggs @dabbe In reflection, it‘s not the # of years, but the quality of the relationships, the power of the word, the epiphanies—evidenced by the notes, letters, and art our students gave to us, in all their vulnerability and wonder 💭 💜 🥰 10mo

Eggs @bthegood Miss Silliman, 3rd grade, for me ~ fresh out of college, lovely, polite, read to us, fostered a safe and comfortable learning environment, solidified my love of reading🩷! Magical ✨💫 10mo

dabbe @bthegood So true. I remember my 4th-grade teacher, Ms. Littrell, for the same reason. Thanks for reminding me. 💙🩵💙 10mo
