Hey patrons & friends! I plan to do some more book buying for missing AmblesideOnline books, as well as some more for the Picture Book Preschool bags, now that those needing them for the school year should be done shopping, and I have piano lesson money coming in to afford them!

We will be open from 1 to 4 pm central time at Clarkson Baptist Church. Hope to see some new faces!
