CONCERTS MOVE TO FRIDAY NIGHT - SWING TIME

 

For the remainder of our concert season, we will have performances on FRIDAY NIGHTS - starting this Friday, September 10, from 7-9 p.m. with the mellow sounds of the Philly Saxophone Quartet. These four gentleman will take us back in time to the first half of the 20 th century and features songs from the Great American Songbook like "Blue Skies", "Ain't Misbehavin'" etc. Dancing shoes are recommended but not required. As always, the concert is outdoors, bring a lawn chair/blanket and a picnic. Rain date, if necessary, is Saturday, September 11.

On another front, Cynthia and I are fully into moving gear, and it's a good thing because we sure have a lot to move. Our beloved Glen Fern, where we've been caretakers for the last four years, will be leased to someone who can put more resources into preserving this 18th century treasure on the banks of the Wissahickon. We will sorely miss the sounds of the creek, the kingfishers teaching their young to hunt, the fox and her kits, etc. But we are excited about moving in with Dorothy, Cynthia's 87 year old mother, to help her stay in her home as long as possible. But we're moving from 12 rooms into 3 and our biggest challenge is moving the mountains of unpriced, but good, books out of Livezey into a storage facility. Thus, we aren't accepting books for trade or donation until November 1 when we will have completed the move. We are also open to help and will have organized moving parties, on  this and most Sundays in September and October, so give us a call or an email if you want to help.

Hope to see you in the shop. Lots of good books finding their ways on to our shelves during all of this moving around. Check it out.

Greg and Cynthia
