Ah, the summer air, sunshine, and the smell of onions on the grill! Happy 4th of July!

Having reached the age at which I have gone through my lifetime’s allotment of things to explode, I’ll leave those gunpowder-related things to younger fire-pappies and just stick to admiring the features of the season. I’m at the shop, as usual. This afternoon is devoted to research projects and ignoring the remaining few stacks of books that require pricing and shelving.

Needless to say, the shop is closed, although many of my Rose District neighbors are conducting business as usual. The restaurants are open (with the exception of Romeo’s and Back Creek Deli) and folks are out enjoying the day at the sidewalk tables.

Be safe in your endeavors today and call if you suddenly experience a book emergency.

I’m here to serve.
