This morning, I picked up Anna from a sleepover on "the other side" of the highway - the side of the highway where neighborhoods scatter and remnants of a countryside past remain. It made me think. Isn't it interesting how beauty is more apparent when we veer from our well-worn path? Our senses fine tune from a different point of view? Following are a few of the new things we saw on our way home.
And then this.....A BOOK SALE!
A local library was clearing out the old....
..... to make room for the new!
We came home with a pile of summer reading (without the late fees!)
We agreed to donate the books to the school library come fall.
TODAY'S SPENDING:
Book Sale: $6.50 for a stack of books and 2 drinks from the Girl Scouts
(At 10AM it was already sultry!)
Gas: $25 (The inevitable)
Groceries: $48.59
