I have been re-reading the HP series for the 8th or 9th time now, and 
it has bothered me that Hermione's stay at the order was never 
explained. I seem to remember Harry complaining that they were all at 
Grimwald or is it Grimwauld Place, but once he arrived there, he 
never asked why she was there. Hermione ususally goes on summer 
vacation with her parents except in GOF. And from the letters Harry 
recieved from her, it sounds as if she was there much of the summer 
holiday. <snip>
 
If this has been discussed before, then I will go bang my head 
against the wall and iron my fingers.  If not, all opinions are 
welcome of course!
 
Carol:
My theory is extremely simple. She was visiting Ron at the Burrow.
When the Weasleys moved to Grimmauld Place attend meetings, be closer
to the MoM, and in Molly's case, help clean it up, they took the kids
with them. Naturally Hermione, as Ron's guest, wouldn't be left behind!

P.S. No need to iron your fingers if your proposed topic has been
discussed before. Whatever the topic, chances are it's been hashed
over a dozen times at least--in the case of some topics (Snape's
motives!), probably several hundred times. Then again, I haven't read
all 97,500-odd posts, so I'm probably underestimating. :-) C.
