My husband and I took a 3-day trip to see Volleman's Family Farm. They have the best milk and I enjoy supporting local businesses. On the way back home, there was a small town and there was an old school with a book sale. It's great fun to cull through the books and find hidden treasures of the past! They were organized by subject and there were plenty of volunteers to assist. I found some Readers Digest short stories and some childrens books from my childhood. I appreciate my husband's patience and he actually found a book about race cars!
