glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the Brahmins of East Coast High Culture It is 2:05 PM Monday afternoon in the death flow. It is another sunny day here in West Michigan. I think it is in the high 70's today. Not bad weather for late Summer. I am falling asleep so I better get to the point. I got up this morning around 7:45 AM. I got up late for unknown reasons. So I got up had breakfast and messed with our main computer. After messing with our main computer I wrote in my paper diary. Carol and I left the house to visit Fennville Public Library to check out their used book room. On the way to Fennville we stopped at New Richmond Bridge Park to walk. At the Fennville Public Library we found a ton of used books to buy. I will just list the used books I bought (Carol bought 25 used books, which were mostly used children's books).
