From a Sunday Morning Walk
As I walked in a nearby neighborhood this morning I saw a Barack Obama sign in one yard and a Mitt Romney sign across the street. I was reminded, once again, of the political bumper sticker I have:
Don't Blame Me, I Voted for McGovern!
Enjoy the political process and be sure to vote!
Don't Blame Me, I Voted for McGovern!

DOLLS VISIT ABOUT BOOKS
My interesting moment of the day: A couple came in with their Asian Ball-Jointed dolls this evening. They are really fascinating dolls - I had never seen this kind before. They are, as named, ball-jointed, and they are anatomically correct. One other customer was in at the time and we were both fascinated with the dolls. He took as many pictures as I did!Keep Reading!
