By the step statue in the park. Enjoy!
Old age came for me today. I think I'm getting too old to walk around for hours toting heavy bags of books!
Thanks, Canadateagirl. Good to see you again today and thank goodness the sun came out for Word on the Street!

Fun read. There was one quote in this little volume that caught my eye in particular. Maybe I'm delusional but does this not have strange echoes of a Bob Dylan lyric...hmmm...:
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying,
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying."
- Robert Herrick
I never heard of Herrick but does anyone else hear Dylan in that (The Times They Are A-Changing)?
Anyhow, I will bring this to our meetup this Sunday and release it there

This book amused me greatly. It is very appropriate as I reach the old age of 87 next week
This particular book is ideal for short intervals such as waiting to see the dentist or doctor,riding public transport or just to fill in short periods of time. I will leave this little gem at the local Rexall.
