I used to have a crazy quilt store fairly near by that had Weekes and GAST
and Caron and her own flosses (dyed to go with her favorite fabrics). She
had beads and charms and buttons. But her little town square decided to go
upscale and she couldn't afford her rent anymore and she didn't want to do
the e-business thing.
So cherish this place.

Ooo, I don't envy you! At least you were fairly lucky. Make sure you
let everything dry completely! I'll be sending good thoughts your
way.....

Thanks.
Fortunately only a box of old college textbooks, some rags,
and the concrete floor (my parents never finished the
basement) were the only things to get really wet. I should
have thrown out those textbooks years ago. So next
garbage day....out they go.

I wish there was a way to find a new life for my old college texts. Though,
I'm going to find my physics one, it's well annotated and DS is taking
physics next year.

The physics books is one of the ones that bit the dust. That and
a history of civilization. Oh, a number of accumulated jr hi math
books that I never used since I passed on teaching for programming
for an oil company.
