Duluth has a new indie used/new bookstore--Zenith Books! I had a great chat with one of the owners, Angel, about being a Book Lady.
Here I am being goofy outside their storefront, with its mural of book spines. The store used to be Wild West Liquors, because it's in the run-down west side of town, where I usually stay. (The university & mansions are on the east side).
This side has just started to spiff up lately, and the store is doing VERY well.
It was great to get away---Lake Superior blew my mind cobwebs away, for the moment, and I'm happy to be back at work. I'd gone to the dermatologist for a skin check the morning I left (all is well), and the nurse said to me, "You have my dream job."
I have to say, I have my dream job too! Annoyances and poor pay notwithstanding. I'm off to it right now---more later!
