You'll love the this week's two latest discussions on David's 4-5 [|blog] from Poughkeepsie, NY. The topics have definitely stirred up some conversation and laughs in our room.

On page 84 Winnie noticed that Miles was "broad and muscled. He looked solid, like an oar, whereas Jesse - well, she decided, Jesse was like water: think and quick."
