My health has taken a turn for the worse lately, so I’m not able to post very often.

I do like to keep up with the notes and everyone’s posts, so I’m reading, even though you may not see me often.

How interesting! Did they find anything of note?

I wish! Then nobody could build across the street from me!

My in laws, remember when they both went into the hospital a couple weeks back? They’re still there. Just as we thought the mom’s strength might be strong enough for release, she fell down today.

Been reading the kids the first Hardy Boys book. It’s probably been revised since its original edition. I enjoy the milieu and detailed writing, but the mystery is ridiculously convoluted.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #159 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:41:55 PM »

My late brother must’ve had 20 of those hardcovers. This is my first time reading one.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #160 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:43:03 PM »

The kids are enjoying it though. The evil “Hobo Johnny” has just trapped the boys in a water tower.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #161 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:43:48 PM »

I certainly enjoyed the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew mysteries on TV.

Pamela Sue Martin. Where’s she been the last 30 years? I had a little crush back in the day.

2 of my older sisters crushed on Shaun.
One other was into Parker.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #164 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:47:04 PM »

We had to own 2 copies of Shaun’s debut LP so they wouldn’t fight over the “kissable” poster.

Intermission.
Shaun performing a deep cut from his LP “Under Wraps” live a couple years ago.

What young mystery novels did the mystery fans of HHW enjoy?

Rodzinski · « **Reply #167 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:51:05 PM »

I was a fan of the Happy Hollisters, myself. I still have some of those, passed down from cousins.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #168 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:54:56 PM »

“Alfred Hitchcock’s Three Investigators” was a good kids series I’m surprised hasn’t made its way back into the culture.

If you find this all a snooze and a bore
Know that I’m merely attempting to get one page more

In reading the Hardy Boys books aloud to my kids, this shameless ham encounters one problem.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #171 on:** March 10, 2025, 11:59:48 PM »

There is no discernible difference between Joe and Frank Hardy. So I can’t use a distinguishing voice for either. It simply does not matter.

There’s still 93 ahead of me in line for Ina Garten’s memoir.

Yikes!

I do have, aside from one of my sisters’ Shaun Cassidy records, an LP by a ‘60s pop group that co-opted the Hardy Boys name.

Had a nice 2 hour zoom visit with the kids.

And a nice hour long in person visit with WFO before that

That's great, Vixmom!

What a coinkydink! MY sister has a Shaun Cassidy record!

She really liked him while growing up back in the 70s

AND they have the same birthday of September 27 (different year, of course).

Rodzinski · « **Reply #177 on:** March 11, 2025, 12:03:55 AM »

On that Shaun debut LP, is the song “Morning Girl,” a remake of the hit by the Neon Philharmonic. A group really a vehicle for one interesting cat named Tupper Saussy.

Oh, no! 😱

Today I saw some people doing work on the lot across the street. They had a kind of dirt-sifting screen. So I realized they were archaeologists who have to come check out any property under development to make sure there are not tribal remains. I thought, hey, that’s a story my readers might enjoy, so I went and interviewed them. They were so nice, a girl and guy fresh out of George’s alma mater, Western Washington U., working their dream gig.

That's really cool, Rodzinski!
