I love book stores... big and small.

Mainstream and kooky.

old books... new books... I love them all.

The other day when we went to State College,

the daughter and I had the opportunity to visit a couple book stores,

a couple arts & crafts shops...

and a fabulous grocery store.

It was awesome.

The photo at the top is from a book of some of the very first photographs ever made... taken in France.

And of course, the immediate one below... I blurred out people's faces to protect their identity.

It's always amazing to me how a simple visit like this can bring such great inspiration.

See you all tomorrow.
