The Old Forge Hardware Store
Here are some photos from my visit to the Old Forge Hardware Store during our Adirondacks trip last week. This store has EVERYTHING and I had a great time looking at all of it, especially the stuffed animals and books!
Oh Mommy...how often do you see yourself in this little girl? I remember so fondly sitting on the floor in a bookstore with you, surrounded by all manner of wonderful books from which you were trying to choose those best to bring to the children you would teach that year and thinking that I was reliving the moments of your childhood when a stack of books was where you could be found, sitting, turning pages, humming to yourself. The moment was a joyful one for me. But how could I have even imagined the joy of this little mimic of you ... a next generation book worm. Delighted and excited by the very sight of books on a shelf!
Oh my goodness! What an absolute dreamland for a little girl. I remember that place, too. Love how you posted so many great pics of your vacation. It was so fun to see!!!!
