The Bookshop Dog Gallery


Buddy seems content with his new fame. The girls were waiting on the doorstep, before the bookshop opened, to have Buddy's picture taken for the "Dog Gallery." We have man's best friend in every size, shape and colour.

Summer Holidays


July 20 - 28. The Neat Little Bookshop will be closed for holidays

The logistics of keeping the shop open extra hours this week has been a challenge. The cell-phone battery is dying. Two of three printers are down and the digital camera is malfunctioning. Creating a reasonable outdoor Cayuga 150th display and maintaining some semblance of normalcy with family and friends has tested our endurance. (Missy's wild dinosaur knocked the plant off the piano ~ dirt everywhere, including in the keys.)

In addition, the seat belt in my trusty vehicle works only if I lever a turkey-skewer into it. (The Haldimand O.P.P. are never going to believe this one.) Then finally yesterday, the clock stopped in the store.

We will spend some time watching the geese at the family cottage on Lake Erie. On Wednesday, July 29, the fresh coffee will be on again in the Little Bookshop; come and see us. Stay a while. Read a Book. http://www.cayuga150th.com/
