| My favorite Used Bookstore in the world.... |

is in New Orleans. Faulkner House books. The proprieter was a wonderful old man, and I bought some great American first-editions when I was there, and then he later helped me via email to find others.
It breaks my heart to think of all those great, old, valuable books under water.

Oh no, all the old books. I spent a lot of time just looking at them when there several years ago. That is heart breaking.

It hadn't occurred to me until now, when I looked at my shelf and saw the books I bought there. And thought about the books I had hoped to buy from there in the future. A terrible loss for book collectors.

was one of my favorite records stores. I'm sure there won't be much left when this is over.
