I stopped at the library on Black Friday to pick up a couple of books. Found these two scooters and helmets parked inside the entrance.
Jacque asked for a haiku day, so I thought I’d get us started:
Library scooters –
Someone is raising them right.
Hope for the future.

Glad to know I’m not the only one who thinks paying the high prices for movies snacks is outrageous. Wasband used to defend the industry, saying that if theatres don’t charge that much, they can’t make enough to pay for the high prices of showing the movies. I’ve always said I don’t need to buy into that insanity.
