So here's a new twist. In the evening the guests took their books out on the porch of our bed and breakfast to read.

Then the next morning they drove to the north end of Wallowa Lake and sat on the picnic benches at the Wallowa County Park so they could read and look at the Wallowa Mountains with the lake in front of them, sorta like this picture.

Then in the afternoon when it got hotter they went to the Wallowa Lake State Park at the south end of the lake where it's a little cooler so they could read their books some more. Have to watch out for the deer at the north end of the lake. If they think you're got food, well, they just get really interested

It was hard keeping up with them, but here's some of what they read:

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows

Secret Prey by John Sanford

They said they had a good time with all the reading they did. I hope they bring some fresh books when they come back again!
