#VacationReading

So, another vacation has come and gone - oh, too soon. It was glorious. Hot, hot and hotter weather every day (who says it doesn't get hot in Canada?). How did we cope? Pool, pool, pool and more pool time (and a few frosty adult beverages). The time flew by and now we are happily back at home and at work. Vacations would be boring if we had them every day, although it would be interesting to try....

Anyway, reading is an essential part of vacations - at least it is a necessity on my vacations. I always take a bigger stack of books and magazines than I can finish but it's fun and a challenge to get through as many as possible.

There is an essential criteria, though. If I read part of a book but find that it really is not "grabbing" my interest, I have decided, without guilt, to move on to something else. My time is too valuable to force myself to read a book just because I started it. 

On my vacation there were a couple of books that just did not work for me. In the past I might have persevered but fortunately,with age, comes some wisdom. Some books just went to the recycle bin while others were wonderfully entertaining companions. 

Reading is so important  that most of us even include it in our precious leisure time, so what we read had better be good. 

I guess that it's time to start planning the next holiday....
