This post inspired by Fandango’s Friday Flashback – January 17
Wouldn’t you like to expose your newer readers to some of your earlier posts that they might never have seen? Or remind your long term followers of posts that they might not remember?..Why don’t you reach back into your own archives and highlight a post that you wrote on this very date in a previous year?

This post is from January 17, 2019 in response to a Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge
(I am happy to report that this book store is still going strong…)

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge – Blue and Yellow
Cee’s Challenge topic this week is Blue and Yellow
I am happy to report…at least in the town I live in, there is a living, breathing…book store!
Alive and well for decades. Selling books, magazines, greeting cards, note cards and all sorts of fun reading paraphernalia. For adults and children alike. Browsers welcome. Book signings. Book Groups.
Surviving as an actual independent book store in this digital and Amazon age is admirable. And a testament to Shop Local.
I LOVE it! And I grieve that the bookstores I used to enjoy browsing are gone with the wind of digital and Amazon. But there is a Half-Price bookstore a short bus ride away–I try to get there once or twice between spring and summer’s end.

Yes, I love it too – this cozy little store nearby! It is such a shame so many small book stores have been pushed out. At least there’s the half price one near you!

I DO love a bargain, so it’s easy to go a bit crazy there–and they have lovely note cards, Xmas cards, calendars, and jigsaw puzzles as well 🙂
