Walking group behind statue of Ramona

Friday, May 17th, 2024
A Suitcase Full of Books hosted a TravelCon Meetup in Portland, Oregon. This included following .9 miles of the walking tour found in Walking with Ramona by Laura O. Foster. Our Meetup started at the Grant Park Beverly Cleary Statue Garden and ended with dinner at Moon and Sixpence pub. If you weren’t able to walk with me in person, join me for the walk virtually- watch the travel vlog A Book Lover’s Day in Portland Following Beverly Cleary.

Searching for the Astral Library in the Boston Public Library #booktube
One thing I’ve found through my travels is that (nearly all) humans love for a good dog story. So here are three I’ve added to my dog’s bookshelf:
🐶 Patsy Ann of Alaska
📍Visit the statue of Patsy Ann on the cruise dock in Juneau, AK and pick up a copy of the book at nearby @hearthsidebooks 
🐶 Catie Copley
📍Visit the @fairmontcopley in Boston, MA and ask the concierge for a copy of the book.
🐶 Greyfriars Bobby
📍Visit the statue of Bobby in the Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh, Scotland. Pick up a copy of the book at @toppingsedin.
