    Started "dogs of war". So far so good. Would have never guessed that working military dogs were always one rank above their handlers.

    So, last weekend Travel Channel had on Million Dollar Vacation Homes. One of them was inspired by Toad Manor in The Wind in the Willows... It was too cool. Now I have to read the book..
    Went to the Library yesterday and got a copy.. Its an 'older childs' story from 1890.

    My client read this recently, and suggested I read it.
    War Beneath the Waves
    Sounds interesting.


    An amazing story by Don Keith of bravery in a WWII submarine that took 60 years to tell
