Outside Reading #14

When reading the book Marley and Me written by the John Grogan I made a connection between the book and the area of Edina known as the country club. The area in the book is called Boca Raton or as the people living there call it Boca. This area is described as wealthy, land of luxury sedans and red sports cars. The Country club may not have luxury sedans or sports cars but in the neighborhood you will find some nicer houses of Edina. The book goes on into more detail about some other stereotypes of Boca Raton, but none of them really describe the Country Club. One detail that did stand out is that the houses are a little older then other houses in the city. The character John describes the people in Boca as rich people who only care about themselves and their image. That image is not being carried out by the people living in the Country Club.
