My first TAG!

My first tag comes from my friend Amanda and I am excited to give it a shot.
Here are the rules:

[1] Grab the nearest book.

[2] Open to page 56.

[3] Find the 5th sentence.

[4] Post the text of the next 2-5 sentences and these rules.

[5] Pick the closest book (not the favorite, cool, or intellectual).

[6] Tag 5 peeps!

I chose:



"From her window she watched him in the yard, securing his lunch in the rear carrier pack of his bicycle, the walking his bicycle across the yard and into the street. She watched him pedal away, saw his broad thick-shouldered figure disappear around the turn at the end of the street."

Thanks Amanda - and since this is my 1st tag and I have very few blog friends as of yet I am going to skip rule number 6. Is this a blog faux pas?
BUT
If you are reading and feel so inclined please feel free to do it!
