"The party's here," the sign reads.  Kay Barones, owner of Barone's Books, appears to be the only one surprised at all the attention.  Watching customers dodge  CHCH T.V. camera and reporter, Lisa Hepfner, Kay said, "This is going on the six o'clock news!  I didn't even know they were coming."

After twenty-six years, co-workers and friends [interchangeable] are saying 'Thanks' for the memories.  Barones is closing their door on July 14.

Tomorrow:  More Barone's photos and names. (Please click on photo for larger image.)
