On February 16 in 1929 King Tut's tomb was unsealed for the first time by archaeologist Howard Carter (I would have loved to have been there). In 1878 Congress passed the Bland-Allison Act. This act required the minting of silver coins (the Silver Dollar) and for them to be put into circulation. The Ladies Home Journal begins publication in 1883. The National Deaf Mute College is established in 1857 in Washington, D.C. It is later renamed Gallaudet University (and still in existence). It is the first school for the advanced education of the deaf. Studebaker Brothers Wagon Company is established in 1852 (later to become automobile manufacturers).

Return to Paradise was a lovely,
heartwarming novel. I picked it up and
did not want to stop reading it. Return
to Paradise is easy and enjoyable to read.
The writing is very good and easily engages the reader (and their
attention). At the end of the book I
just wanted more (I did not want it to end).
We still have two more brothers (and Lavina's sister) and their
stories. I look forward the next book in
The Coming Home series. I give Return to Paradise 5 out of 5 stars. I had no
complaints about this book (I am sure some of you are shocked)! Return to Paradise came out today!
You can follow Barbara Cameron on Amazon to get updates on her newest books. You can also see what other books she has published. I received a complimentary copy
of Return to Paradise from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
My current book is A Hold on Me by Pat Esden. We had some severe rains last night. There was a lot of thunder and lightening (leading to scared animals). It is now sunny and bright outside! I am off to the pharmacy. I hope all of you have a wonderful Tuesday! Take care and Happy Reading!
