When you check out books at my local library (pictured here) they indicate how much money you saved. I've saved almost $14,000 since their new computer system. (About 15 years?) Now I have extra money to spend at my local indie bookstore, right?

Happy World Read Aloud Day! I'm ready with my 'show and tell' items: Park ranger hat, truck dress, NBA poster with How to Babysit a Grandpa, and the book I'll read, TURBO'S SPECIAL DELIVERY.

On our walk today, we found a rocktopus. :-)

Lots of love at my local bookstore, The King's English Bookshop. (including, HOW TO LOVE A GRANDMA!)

Toddler 'studying' TURBO'S SPECIAL DELIVERY. (Photo from Eduardo Marticorena, Turbo's illustrator!) :-)

A block from our house. The sunset lit up the mountains for a brief moment. I'm glad we turned around to catch it.

I donated! Terrific organization!
