I found the sculpture, and it is beautiful!...and still frozen in our tundra! And it makes a great addition to 6 year old Prince Aidan's snow sculpture. I love the sea motif. My favorite place to be...on the beach (with a book)!
Ha! The cartwheels...Do I remember? My contacs will never be the same! That snowman is soooooo cute! Thanks, again!

Kathy,
The cabana boys sent an ice sculpture to the kingdom.
Hope it doesn't melt on the way. They worked very hard.
They put this one on the beach. Remember when we all did the cartwheels.

Ha, that's how much you know Susie, that's me in the pic. Pen was paying off the hotel security guard at the time. He wanted to have us arrested but she convinced him to just put us under house arrest so the show could go on.
Plus you could easily buy Becke her book store with the 20% pen and I have decided to give you. We've been talking with an entertainment attorney here on vacation that is enjoying our show and he says 10% but no more than 20%.
Pens going over the script for the on air convo we'll be having in a few minutes. Who thought we would hit it as big as we have. I guess there's just no accounting for taste.

Debbie what did happen last night? Where are we?

Becke, with all of your 'zipping', it's no wonder you're frazzled! Ha! I love this sculpture, though! We'll have to have a Summer Solstice Festival at the Kingdom. I'm thinking of turning some of the east lawn into sand. Give it a beach effect, with artificial waves.....beach cabana's, etc..... and sand sculptures will be a must! A lot of work is ahead! Everyone must join in this event at the Kingdom! I won't be able to do it without you all! Consider this an invitations, when the time arrives. Sometime in June! In the meantime, I'll post a schedule of upcoming events for the months, so everyone can think on them.
I've been busy just reading all of these posts this morning. I'm so glad you brought Deanna Raybourn and her novels to your board. Solving her mysteries is always fun. (although, I can never solve them!) ![]()

In regards to Deanna's book covers:
I liked the first printing selection of the hardcopy of Silent in the Grave, which I've shown here, it's the one I had bought, and had the chance to discuss with Deanna. And I like the paperback cover for Silent in the Sanctuary. They give an air of mystery and suspense, and a hint of a woman in the background.
The paperback cover for Silent On the Moor, you can keep. That's my only objection to these mystery/romance novels...or anything that is hyped as romance, instead of a mystery novel, which it should be. I like the hint of a woman on the covers, not pictures that have to frame a full bodice busting out of their dress, or a man's hands clutching close by. Covers like that turn me off, completely. I'm glad I read her first book, before they started coming out with these new covers. There is much more to her characters and stories than something so misleading and trite as those new covers portray.. I haven't read this new stand alone, Dead Travel Fast. But I will, because I know I like Deanna's writing, I just try and ignore the covers, which now appear to have nothing to do with the stories.
