Raining here a lot in the Northeast-a balm to my soul. It must be the Irish in me. However, my dog, Pellinore, finds it insufferable. I love walking in the rain, and Pellinore refuses to leave the house.

Pelly, once again, we are not compatible.
And you do not have a shred of Irish in your bones.

I love the Alice books! I collect editions that strike my fancy and found these at Argosy Book Store a few years back. I wanted to share them here on Bluesky just to see if anyone else had these printed in 1896 and 1899 by Macmillan. These are the oldest editions I have in my collection currently.
