Ten on the Tenth: Day Trip Photos

Yesterday Robbie and I decided to take a day trip to Denton, Texas, to check out a bookstore we'd read about in Texas Highways magazine. The bookstore, Recycled Books, is housed in the old Denton Opera House and is HUGE - three floors and numerous rooms filled with books, movies, and records. The bookstore is on one corner of the town square, so we also visited a few antique shops, a comic shop, and the Denton Hamburger Company. Here are my favorite ten photos from the day:

  11. I love the glimpses into your life like these: so interesting when you live in another country. Love the bookshelves for tall people - I'd be hunting for the ones for small people!

  13. This is a wonderful book store! I would get lost in a place like that, which would be so fun. I do love the book for tall people section, since I'm the short one in my family at 5'9".
