A little book of quotations (that all start with the letter "M") that I am using as my journal for the Weather/Water bookbox journal.

One of my favorite quotes in this little book is "Men play harder than they work, women work harder than they play" - Mary Roberts Rhinehart

This box has finally been mailed on to GoryDetails. Sorry for taking so long!

The weather/water/seasons bookbox arrived today - many thanks! I love this little quote-book, too; the 3D cover ornament is adorable. (I tried to get a picture, but it's a little blurry - should still give the general effect, though.) Given that the book's about quotes beginning with "M", I'm guessing that the flowers on the cover are marguerite daisies; I'd love to find other books in the series, as they'd make great geocache books as well as bookbox journals. I enjoyed the quotes, too, especially J. Fulton Sheen's "Mostly the big print giveth, and the small print taketh away."

Given the icy/snowbound winter we had, I don't know whether I'll be able to force myself to take any of the snow/winter-themed books {wry grin}, but we'll see. I've contacted next-in-line heartthumper for an address, and hope to get the box moving again within a few days.

The bookbox is on its way to BCer heartthumper in Kansas. Thanks for including me!

And the box is home! Ok, not the same physical cardboard box (thank you whoever replaced the original one) but it's home! And it's lovely that none of my books have come back to roost.

Thank you so much to all who participated. Books will be journaled shortly to continue their bookcrossing life :)
