I'm not sure if someone here has already recommended Cutting For Stone but
I really enjoyed it. Some of the medical procedure descriptions made me
squeemish, but it is a wonderful story set in Ethiopia and America. I
also just finished the first two books by Steig Larrson, the Girl With the
Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played With Fire - they are 500+ pages but
you will not be able to put them down. The English translation of the 3rd
one in the trilogy is coming very soon.

Was able to spend some great time recently with Mary Ann and Jeff when
they came north to visit their daughters - even got to go geocacheing!

Start thinking about a 2010 reunion in San Francisco!
