Thanks Uncle Bill

This week I finished reading Call of the Wild by Jack London. It's a rather interesting book about how a dog is wrenched from life as he knows it and is turned into a sled dog. The time frame for this is during the Yukon gold rush. Oddly enough I got the book from Uncle Bill for Christmas and in the little note inside it said "direct from the Yukon". Cool. You know Uncle Bill to my memory has never managed to disappoint me at Christmas. I rarely get to see him yet he seems to get me the right gift. This meaning when I went to Grammy's I left the book I was reading home so when I opened this I had something to read. I could have finished it a lot sooner but when I got home I had lot's of other books to read (the down side to home school).
