Friday night read. Murder-mystery is a new one for me. (Did I mention my protagonist has a beagle named Pumpkin that’s helping her solve the murder?🤭🐾🥰)

Gorgeous sunset and a singing dog. What could be better?🥰🐾🧡

My typical Friday night.🐾 🥰 Also, I’m thinking of starting a new series with a girl who solves mysteries with her beagle, Pumpkin, by her side. 🐾😁

Alba Arango @albaarango.com · 24/09/2026

Wore this super bright shirt to do a trail today. We got about .16 miles in and Pumpkin adamantly refused to do more. She was much more interested in walking around the nearest neighborhood…so that’s what we did. It is, after all, her adventure.🥰

Took Pumpkin to Lowe’s for the first time this afternoon (they are pet friendly). She was the happiest dog in the world! She had to smell E V E R Y T H I N G 😂😂😂 Now, she’s tuckered out.😴🥰

I don’t do many book signings any more (at least for now), but I figured I should probably check my inventory in time for the Las Vegas Book Festival (Oct. 17). Good thing I did, one of the boxes was almost empty! 😳😅
