Nevada Is My New Favorite State!!!

Just got official word that SWIM THE FLY has been nominated for a NEVADA YOUNG READERS AWARD 2011. It’s between Swim and four other books and the final voting is May 2011. So, this will be my first official campaign blog. I have a year to get the word out to all those fantastic kids in Nevada (who just so happen to be the best kids in the entire world - and I’m not just saying that).

So thank you! Thank you! Thanks you, children of Nevada!!!

In other - not quite as exciting news - the hockey playoffs have begun. I am officially rooting for the Vancouver Canucks and the Pittsburgh Penguins. I have to chose a team from both conferences so that I am “invested” in whoever will come out of each conference. Also, there’s Sidney Crosby, who we all know is the greatest currently playing hockey player in the world (see the 2010 Olympics).  And so, I will be incredibly busy watching a fair share of hockey over the next couple of months along with packing up my house for a move to our new digs.

Which reminds me, I must now get back to that packing.

But not before some pictures from the road trip across BC. I neglected to bring my fancy new camera and so only had the iPhone - which does in a pinch.

It’s springing outside!

Needless to say, I passed on the rolls.
