View PostOur trip began on Sunday, March 29, with Dave waking me up and saying that our flight to NY was canceled. We could still get there, but we had to take a very indirect route, and we flew to Philadelphia instead of NY, since all the flights going to LaGuardia seemed to be delayed. So, we flew through Orlando, landed in PA, and rented a car to take us to NJ, where we stayed overnight, with our Israel flight leaving in the morning.
View PostIt’s time for my first half of April 2026 book review post! I am sharing what I read in April so far, although I am skipping my 5 star reads to share later in the month. Because I’ve only read 5 books so far this month and 2 were 5 stars, this will be a shorter post – but I have a lot to say about one of the books! The Amazon links to the books I’ve read are affiliate links and if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. If you’ve read any of these books or are interested in them, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!
