Subject: Beguiling Books!
Time: 1:40:00 AM EDT
Author:  photographybymon



I wasn't going to play along with the ABC photo challenge that Martha started but, the more I thought about it the more I wanted to try once again.  I've started this a couple of times and never got very far into the alphabet.  Maybe with Martha inspiring us to post a photo twice a month I will keep on track.
 
                               Here is my 'B' photo - Beguiling Books! 
 
These photos were taken this past summer when I went to Southern CA to visit an outdoor bookstore my dad had built many, many years ago and is still in business.  This was my playground as a young child. :-)
 
                                
My daughter, Kim LOVIN' the store and all the books.  She said I was a LUCKY kid.:-)
 
                   
 
This last photo is from a post card taken when I still lived at the bookstore, the blonde girl was my friend, Sandy.  I hid behind the door/corner because I was camera shy.
 
                   
 
*** PS. Notice I didn't go with a Blushing Bride! :-)  I thought about it.

    Hi Monica, stopping by via Magic Smoke.

    I love the concept of an outdoor bookstore! While it wouldn't work in our climate, I think it would be so pleasant to browse for books on a beautiful sunny day!
