   I was out in my pool this afternoon and looked up through the screen cage and I saw one of these sleeping in the tree.
   
   I wondered how long it has been hanging out in my backyard..
   
   I opened up my belated birthday gift today... a kindle! I'm excited to get it going this weekend.
   
   nice, huh.

   Don't take the coon.  He'll fight you for that fish.

      I'm sure I will love it. It's so sleek and easy to hold.
      I'm a huge book person, holding a book, but I think these are amazing what they can do.

         You won't miss holding your book! I love the way an e-reader feels, and I love the adjustable font. Somehow, I think I can get more comfortable with my nook. I'm not always shifting to move the pages.
         
         I can't believe how much more I'm reading with my nook!

            I will be like a kid with the first book I download. I think it's crazy that you can click and there's a book! It almost seems like it may be quicker reading because you're only focusing on one page. sometimes when holding a book, I get distracted with the other page, or like you mentioned, holding the book, especially if it's bigger or a hardback.

      I love my nook. I just love downloading books and having them right then and there! And the price! When you're reading a series, you never have to worry about the bookstore, being out of the next one!

         Just an hour ago we had to stop the car to let a big raccoon and (I'm guessing) four adorable baby raccoons cross the road.    So cute....     (Strange someone posted racoons on here now - a raccoon omen, maybe?  )

   The kindle is great for reading in bed and I don't need my reading glasses. I will still be buying print books
   
   I downloaded a couple of free books from Google and I'm really enjoying them. Both mysteries and one was by Steve Martini. I've only bought 3 so far.
   
   You should get the Calibre software. It is great for adding things to your kindle and it converts most formats to Mobi which works well with kindle and it can even list everything on the kindle for you.

    I moved just a month or so ago, and now live about three houses down from the local library. I just discovered "Playaways". Who needs Kindle? They're free! All I need is a library card, AAA battery, a set of earphones and I'm all set. Am now spending my dog-walking time listening to a James Patterson novel.
