Taking stock

"Gladness can scarcely be a solitary thing.
The very life of praise seems choral; it is
more than one bounded heart can utter...
Joy is a uniting thing. It builds up while
it enlarges the whole nature. It is the wine
to strengthen the heart..."

Dora Greenwell

    That hurricane tube looks crazy! What kind of books did they sell at this "underground" bookstore?!?!?

    Chelsey, the book store looked cool but sadly, most of the books were lame.(in my opinion) :P

    I feel like a little country mouse now. So many sparkly ad signs and unknown things like hurricane tubes (very intrigued). You big city types!

    Hello Mrs. Jodi, I love the pictures of Joy and Bronwyn and the underground book store and of the lollipops. It was so much fun to go antique shopping with you and to have you over our house. It was fun! Mary Drennen
