Wanna see what 6000 books looks like?

[RetroLounge]

I moved the bookstore to the basement of my house for now. Much more room to work, and space to expand.

I've listed and shelved 6000 books so far, alphabetical by author.

I'll have a comfortable couch and some chairs and lamps down here soon.

Wanna come by and read?

7. I'm gonna shop for something, even if you don't have Chicago.

[rug]

8. That's looks cozy.

[RetroLounge]

9. Oh, it is...

and once I get the rest of my stuff moved in, it will be better.

My leather captain's chair, my desk, my futon couch, reading chair and lights...

and a coffee pot.

It'll be great fun.

10. It looks like a library

You must have spent a fortune on shelves.

[RetroLounge]

11. 100 bookshelves came with the books

So, not a penny on shelving...

:D

12. Doesn't look like anything over

5,382 to me. :eyes:






:crazy:

[RetroLounge]

15. There's another section in the basement

i didn't take a picture of, which is why it lookis a little shy of 6000 to you...

:rofl:

[u4ic]

23. I KNEW it!

I'm never wrong in these guesstimates... :P

[hippywife]

13. I could happily get lost

in all those books. Good luck with that little venture.

[RetroLounge]

17. Thanks!

Sometime I just walk along the shelves and pull a random book out. Browsing is fun!

I spend hours down here now...

14. My dear Retro!

That effort must have taken some doing!

It makes me tired just to look at it!

If I were in the area, you can bet I'd come over for a read!

Good for you!

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

19. and there are over 20,000 more books in boxes!

Where am I going to put them?

:shrug:

16. Can I come by and read in the little pink tent?

And do you have a copy of The Necronomicon?

[RetroLounge]

20. The tent is available for reading, yes...

:D

No copy of that book. It bit me so I sold it to some guy with a chainsaw for a hand...
