Sounds great - and I'm hoping I inherit some of those as hand-me-downs...

That is an impressive pile of books for $20. I have read a few, heard of a few, and maybe get in the loop for hand-me-downs. MOM
My mom's been reading the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series and she really liked it! A lot of the books are at the Pittsboro Library and she had me bring them home for her!
hey mom & t - yeah - take your pick - they'll just go back to the library for the next book sale if you don't want them
hey miranda - i'm going to have to go to the new library - i've driven thru the silly circle, but haven't gone into the library yet - people have said it's fabulous!
love, k
My mom said it's really nice too, especially since it's connected to CCCC now. I haven't been yet either but I hope to correct that soon!
To have reading is the best part for the life where we can keep ourself busy and also kill time in the freeness.Book make the people more wealthier that cannot be taken by any one.
