Good morning! 😀
It’s a beautiful Saturday here in Central Minnesota… the kind that calls me outside to my bike. I have the bike locked and loaded on the jeep for later today – but first I have a baby shower today and a house-warming. Both early enough in the day so that I will still have later afternoon to ride a bit.
I also wanted to remind everyone that today is the last day to register for BBAW. I too have to do this today… it’s been crazy busy around here and as soon as I am done writing this post I am going to get busy on that as I think you need to set a little time aside to do it. Be sure to read the Awards Process page and then on to the registration page , you will need a Google account or your twitter ID to log in.
Once logged in (I used my Twitter Id – it seamed easier) I backed out, then went into that same page and now had a nominations link. That is what I am working on now.
If you have not participated in BBAW before, I recommend you do. It gives you an opportunity to recognize the blogs you love to read. It really is fun and I love the community of book bloggers! 😀 Remember – today is the last day to register your blog and nominate.
In other news… as I love to participate in Alyce’s Saturday Snapshot meme, thought I would use a few pictures from Honduras since it looks like I may be leading a team there in November of this year. Honduras is always an amazing experience, and a country that in many parts, is extremely poorish.
So that’s it for this morning… Have a great day! 😀
Book Journey 
Wonderful photos, Sheila. Especially the second – perfect!
Don’t think I’d want to actually see that landing strip before my plane landed – yikes!!
We actually applaud the pilot after he lands safely 😀
Great shots…and the flower at the end seems to symbolize hope and love.
Thanks for sharing.
Here’s MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT
I love their flowers Laurel – I wish they would grow here. 😀
Wow, what a great experience! Those kids are so sweet 🙂
You can see that two of the girls are twins…. so cute! And that little boy? I could have poked holes in my carry on for him! 😀
The children look delightful. I bet Honduras is beautiful even if it is poor.
Always the procrastinator I tried to log in to BBAW to do my nominations last night and got an error. 😦 It appears to be working again this morning.
I am doing mine now Leslie – it is working today. 🙂
Those kids look like such fun. They must make the trip that much more rewarding.
There always seems to be a child or children that I am drawn to each trip. 🙂
Have fun on your bike ride. We had beautiful weather here this morning too which was great since I ran my first 5K this morning! I feel so energized now.
Thanks Jill… just got home from the days events and it is sprinkling a bit. I may pass on bile ride and read instead 😀
Wow! That runway DOES look short. I’d be scared to see that in front of me!
Here’s My SS
It really is Vicki…. and not without its horror stories. I really try not to pay attention to the landing part. As soon as he hits the ground the pilot is on the break – you can feel it.
It looks like such a wonderful cause! I wouldn’t be too excited about that tiny runway though!
The first time we didnt know Alyce so it was not a big deal until we seen how quickly we stopped…. this year will be my 9th time to Honduras and I just try not to think too much about it. 😛
Hi!
Great snapshots! That runway looks really short for a plane to land. I’ll bet that’s a bit tricky. Have a great day!

Just Books
Thanks Sherrie 😀
My niece is headed to Honduras in January. I will have to send her the link to your blog!
Have her email Lisa – I have lots of pictures and would be happy to answer any questions if I can. Is she doing a mission trip or on vacation?
Terrific photos! That landing strip is amazing. The pilots must be absolute experts!
Here’s my snapshot: http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/08/saturday-snapshot-august-13.html
Thanks Bev – they are great memories 🙂
Great photos! I’ve never been to Central America… maybe one day
I never dreamed I would be Helen…. life is funny that way – 😀
Hi 🙂 thanks for the heads up. I would like to join BBAW but I haven’t met many book bloggers yet so I am not so sure who to nominate. However, I visited their site through your post and was overwhelmed with the number of book bloggers who are active there. I am now blog hopping thanks to you! lol. I hope to find my genre there, so far blogs I’ve read were for YAs and I’m not much into that. Thanks for sharing 🙂
LOL – well that is awesome 😀 There are a ton of book bloggers thats for sure. 😀
These are so precious Sheila.
Thanks Diane 🙂
Enjoyed looking at the photographs! These are priceless…
Here is my Saturday Snapshot post!
