This weekend is one of my favorite events of the year: the Denver Public Library's annual book sale. I tell you what, it's like Christmas, only even better, because the weather is so nice. I drove past today, and it looks like this year they are setting up tents to house the books, which they haven't done in several years, but is, I think, the best way to go.

Anyway, every year the library purges its system of extra books and offers them for very little money. There are collectibles, of course, that cost more, but for the most part everything is only a couple of dollars. If you go on Saturday, there are more books to choose from, but there are still stacks and stacks to choose from by Sunday, and they usually start selling them by the box load then. Every year we go vowing that we will only get a few books; and every year we come home with several boxes crammed full.

No wonder there are more books per square inch of my house than wall space. Heh.
