Fright Night!

A.J. and his pals are having a school sleepover on the Ella Mentry playground. There's a campfire, marshmallows, and songs. Then it was time to tell creepy and spine-chilling stories. Can the kids handle it? Can you handle it? This super funny and weird book is now in bookstores everywhere.

Mr. Plumer Is Dumber!

This funny little book is now in bookstores. It's Career Day at Ella Mentry School, but the boy's bathroom floods, causing chaos. Enter Mr. Plummer, plumber extraordinaire. After realizing the cause of the bathroom back-up is a mystery, Plummer goes into Sherlock Holmes mode to find the culprit. Is Mr. Plummer a super sleuth or is he all washed up?

The word of the day: hike!

I added another page to my hiking sketchbook. Or is it a journal? Either way, I find that recording these hikes in a sketchbook is a great way to relive the experience. This hike with Lisa was in Usery Mountain Regional Park, central AZ.
