Of reading and Butterflies

I have rediscovered the Joys of reading, as long as I can remember I have loved to read. From early childhood I have read often and voraciously, I am very finicky, whatever I choose to read has to capture my attention almost immediately, that may sound kinda narrow in requirements for a good read, I think not I just have high standards. After the brain surgery I was literally unable to read. I was not able to focus, I would read the same page over and over again. I just gave up reading for a a few months, In a local bookstore I found a booka of a favorite author I handnt read for a while. The author's name is Lee Child, he is a Brit and uses a regular character by the name of Jack Reacher. Every single book of his I have read has been in my opinion very good and the most recent terrific. Vince Flynn is another favorite, he uses a character by the name of Mitch Rapp and Mitch Rapp is the inspiration for Jack Bauer who is the character on The TV show 24. I noticed when I was sitting outside this morning that the Butterflies are coming back. I had only seen a smattering of them up to this point, this year has been the driest I have ever seen and the temperatures have been in the nineties and 100's more times times than I can count I am told all are a record. We have barely been able to keep the garden alive this year and are just nursing it waitinf for fall and lower temps and possibly blessed rain. The Butterflies are here in good numbers, I like that, it signifies life, I always find that to be confirming and I also just like to sit out an d watch them.

Always with love
Tony.
