I'm not sure why the links didn't work in the newsletter that I sent out, so I'm re-publishing it here.

Book Club
In August, we will be reading a book on a topic I’ve been looking forward to: Time Travel to Pre-History (think dinosaurs and cavemen). However, we need your help nominating good books for the theme. If you have any ideas for us, head on over to Nominate a Pre-History Time Travel Book for us to Read.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
FYI: We're at 994 members. Only 6 away from 1000. Pretty exciting!

I’ve been a little absent from the message boards lately, but I have collected a few interesting links for all you time travel lovers out there:

Helpful Guides for Our Time Travelers

I am so super excited for Outlander!

Cheryl (cherylllr) Not just you, Rysa. I can't click through, either. I want to see the workarounds! :(

I don't know what's wrong with them. The HTML code is all correct, but they just don't work for some reason.


message 7: by Amy, Queen of Time (new)

Amy | 2208 comments Mod
Alright. They really work now. No, really. I had to take out all the coding to get them to work properly. Still no clue what was wrong.


message 8: by Cheryl (new)

Cheryl (cherylllr) Yay! The workarounds essay was only mildly amusing, but I was impressed by the Old n New London photos. Lots of intact heritage there...
