Haldimand Loves Horses

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you don't see it, ask!

 

 

Go little book,
     and wish to all
Flowers in the garden,
     meat in the hall.
A bin of wine, a spice of wit,
A house with lawns enclosing it.
A living river by the door
A nightingale in the sycamore.

Henry David Thoreau, American philosopher, essayist and ecologist cried out "Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!*" urging man to follow the lessons of nature and "spur the seductive marvels of the new technology."

Today, I confess this bookshop blogger cried for "Simplicity!"  Cried out more than "simplicity" actually.

Google/Picaso/Blogspot will not allow The Neat L'l Bookshop to "Continue to Checkout" in order to add a few GB to our photo storage and to our GMail.  This is important if we want to continue posting photographs.  Considering "the marvels of the new technology," we are optimistic that we will soon be able to make it to "checkout"  and go wild adding photographs.

Everyone Loves Marineland

Yesterday, we spent the day at Marineland.

We often wonder about the logic of our store hours. From the beginning, it was important to maintain consistency so a lot of thought went into which days best served the community and still allowed us time away. A survey of the retail businesses in Cayuga showed that typically everybody did their own thing. A mistake that perhaps small towns often make.

Our Business hours:

Hours are posted on the door; also on bookmarks and business cards:

Wed. 11-5; Thu. 11-8; Frid. 11-8 and Sat. 11-3.

Two evenings accommodate our students and 9-5 people. Whatever your routine or lifestyle, take a minute and come by The Neat Little Bookshop.
