Rachel and I visited the Friends Of Oklahoma County Library book sale, held annually at the Oklahoma State Fair Grounds. Thousands upon thousands of books were available in two building halls. Most were duplicates, I imagine, but the rest were donated books they couldn't use or store. I was amazed how much stuff there was to pick through, once I was able to navigate around the book dealers and their 55 gallon plastic trash bins. Watching them sweep whole tables clear reminded me that this sale was not intended for them - it was aimed at library customers, not resellers.

Ah, well, so it goes.

We came home with 40 some odd books, and spent just under $30.00.
