Yes, Railroad books!
It's been a great summer. So many of my wonderful old books were sold and went off to new places all over the world. I always hate to see them go. I start to think so much of my best stock is gone.
But NO! Right away fabulous buying opportunities came along.
Now I have the most exciting collection of Northwest history, aviation, and railroad books ever.

Here's a sight you don't see everyday
Through the store window I can see the Siulsaw River. They are dredging the river these days, and now the huge dredging operation is pretty much right across the street. It's a tall crane on a platform that dips in and scoops up sand and puts it on a barge. Then the drawbridge opens to let a tugboat push the barge out to sea to dump the sand.
Not only do I get to watch the draw bridge open a few times a day, but now I can see the whole operation!
Well, I'm impressed.
