The Last one?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s what they say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last time we visited here was during the COVID pandemic, and we were all wearing masks. Not this time, though!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Really cool spot to stop in if you don’t frequent the area often. I like what they’ve done with the spaces. Creating spots for photos around books, and in other places, creating art of the books – it’s a sight to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We couldn’t escape without the wife picking up a few books for *checks notes* – her self, Arabella, Elijah, Luca, and Ezra. I should’ve known better. I guess this gives us something to do when we get back? Yes, we need to find a spot for the extra books we’ve obtained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the bookstore, it was time to head back up to Sacramento.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was pouring (once again, but this time it started much earlier in the day). After we passed Tejon Pass, we were presented with a beautiful rainbow that followed us as we drove. At one point, it was even an intense double rainbow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B-e-a-u-tiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

just Pray<\/p>\n\n\n\n
