I always love to sit outside and read my books on my porch swing (which also can lay down like a futon to a hammock bed), cuddled under my blanket I made for myself (I crochet during my free time). And now I have a reading buddy. He is under the impression that every turned page must be sniffed thoroughly before reading can commence. Otherwise he likes it out there although when we first start swinging he gets a little nervous. Then he settles down.
