Dean Koontz
Today, we got to see my very favorite author of all time. Dean R. Koontz. I've been reading his books since I was 12. I've loved nearly all of them. So, can you imagine how excited I was to find out that he was doing a very rare book signing not too far from my house? We made the drive down to Oceanside this morning. We arrived at the dog training facility about an hour before the scheduled event. We were to be number 63 in line for the signing.
Dean arrived, and spoke for about 30 minutes. Then it was time to get in line. We were thanking God we got there early. We waited in line for about an hour and a half. It was worth every minute. He signed our books, talked to us for a few minutes, and, as you can see, took a picture with us! It was great. I felt bad for the people who got number 305, but, hey! They should have been on time!
We saw some amazing dogs. We have a new favorite charity. Canine Companions For Independence. Check them out. www.cci.org
It was a great day!
