An excellent image to re enter in the monthly theme, Sister Swanee! The way things are going at the moment books look like becoming obsolete in a few years!

Brother, you are so right. It's so sad. I love books and have hundreds of them. Not being read either. Here I sit and I search Google when I need something...Sad state of affairs...I will miss books, and will hold on to mine until they are pried from my arms...even if I am not reading them. Lol... Thanks for the visit. I owe you one. :) -Swanee:D

Hi Neal! Thank you! :) * Hi Wm! Yippeeeeeeeee!BOOKS LIVE! That is the best news I have heard all day! :)))) THINK OF WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THIS WORLD LOST ELECTRICITY!!! (And the "pas-say" idea of books had been destroyed?!) We'd be a lost world! The new generations would be born uneducated and stay that way!!! WOW! SPOOKY THOUGHT!!! Back to scribbling on cave walls! That fast! Happy to see you visiting! -Laura :D

Hi Mare! Gosh, your encouragement is always a wonderful shot in the arm for me. :) (Isn't that a weird saying??? Sounds like a 'junkie' term but my parents age group used to say it!! HeeHee!) There are so many treasures at Heritage Park here in Calgary, and their books are only part of it. I need to go there again and load up on gems. Thanks for being such a wonderful supporter of my work. -Pomagrateful :D

Beautiful rendition in B&W and so appropriate for reminding us that hard copies of these books are now priceless in the digital age. So wonderful to have the classics.
