Almost Ready

  Construction on the box and preparation on the site are approaching completion.  There are still a few tasks to attend, but our neighborhood free library box is nearly complete.  Yesterday the ground was soft enough after some soaking to allow digging the post holes and building the box supports.
A sturdy platform for the box

Donated Roof shingles
 We need some more loads of gravel and I'll need some help filling out the book selection but we're well on our way.  If you're interested in helping just give me a call or drop by.  Right now I've collected about 40 books which I estimate to be enough books for about one shelf.  We have four shelves and are thinking the bottom shelf will be primarily kids books.  We definitely need more kids books if you have any sitting around.

My thinking is we can get the box installed and then have a get together for decorating and filling.  We're usually around on Labor Day weekend so that weekend would work for us, or we could choose an evening during the week.  Anyone have suggestions for a time?  Fun Stuff...

Nice Red door!
And of course a few more garage sale books
