First Book

  Today was a bit hectic with the final coat of door paint, installing the box and setting up the first set of books. Various neighbors dropped by to help spread gravel, donate books and one neighbor I hadn't met yet held the door while I secured the box to the base.  This isn't the official rollout, but we are open for business.  Today setting up and installing the box led to discussions with nine of our neighbors.  That's a clear harbinger of a successful neighborhood project.

Still a few things to finish, but open.

 Anyone care to take a guess at the first book to head out of the library?  There was so much deep esoteric literature, a few page turners, and at this point just a handful of kids books, but what earthly tome would walk away from the newly opened box?  OK enough of a tease, it was Calvin & Hobbes, previously featured in an earlier installment of our little story.

Excellent day, friendly interactions with neighbors, close to wrapping a project, Linda made her amazing cherry pie for desert, and now it's off to the land of a good book, before waltzing off to the land of blink 'em and nod.
