Sunday Post #536

  


Last week Ellie posted some artwork for my Joon and Maia story. What a wonderful Christmas present! I was so moved. As many of you know this story started as a one off, but has morphed into something with 70 chapters and a link to On The Run. So... thank you Ellie! And please everyone go take a look at Ellie's awesome story blog. The Joon post is here.        

This walking tour video is so vibrant. Look at all the Western tourists           

This week's discussion post is Favorite Nancy Drew Covers      



Here is this week's lyric. 
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue  
Thought I heard you talking   

Here is the lyric f/ last week and the answer      

Ooh you can dance you can jive 
Having the time of your life


   Song of the week

    Thank you so much for the shoutout! Oh, I dunno if I can last til Monday. I almost got ran over in the parking lot today..while in my car. I was cornered because somebody wanted my parking place so I had to go the wrong way..and of course, there was a car coming..but I'm home now and relieved. I think we have settled something between a taco bar and sausage and biscuits..it is kind of a brunch. Far from Christmas ham..I know. Everything is just so expensive! Hope you have a great holiday weekend! Thanks for the post too!

    My two nieces didn't enjoy Hanoi and probably would have preferred Ho Chi Minh City, but they got a taste of the country nevertheless.

    Abba forever appealing to all generations. The artwork was wonderful. Must be pretty neat to see your story in pictures.

    Those Nancy Drew covers are all amazing. I love The Mystery of the Glowing Eye, if I had to pick one. Here's my SP: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2023/12/24/sunday-post-merry-christmas-eve/

    Great cover! I recently read a book where the main character's favorite musical group was ABBA. I hadn't thought about them in years and now they are showing up everywhere. Come see my week here. Happy reading and happy holidays!

    Happy holidays, Greg! How nice of Ellie to do that for you. Dancing Queen is such a great song. Love that Charlie Chan mystery book cover.

    Happy holidays, Greg! :D It's been a while, but I'm glad to see you're still blogging. I love the pulp cover, although I wouldn't live anywhere that doesn't have a key. ;) That was so nice of Ellie to do that for you. I'll definitely go check her blog out.

    What a cool thing for Ellie to do! Last week's lyric - I will forever love Abba. This week's lyrics - D2 is one my all-time fave bands. You're killing it with the lyrics. :)
