This Friday I’d like to post something fun. I got this idea to do a wrap up from blogger, Bees and Books.

Overview

I’m starting to feel the drag of Blogtober. I’ve been doing some travelling which makes daily blogging more challenging. I get the feeling other bloggers are feeling the drag too because I don’t get as many hits on my #Blogtober posts as I did in the beginning of the month. Although, that could just be my blog topics! Lol.

What am I reading?

I’m still making my way through Valley of Genius. It’s really interesting and I love making the comparisons between the early days of computing and today. I started off underlining and highlighting sections of book (some of which made it into this post). Now I find myself sitting back and enjoying the ride.

It’s a really good read for anyone who is interested in technology or history.

Who’s Blogtober I liked

They have awesome Fall tinted photos in this post. Reminds me of the movie Sleepy Hallow.

J.K. I’m Exploring is running the Disney 10k. It’s fun to see her updates and learn about a new race!

Who doesn’t love a good Halloween cupcake? I did the owl cupcakes before for a birthday party. They turned out nice! Hardly a Pinterest Fail.
