Was It Real?

Today I drove by the building where our bookstore was. The new owners have been doing some renovations. We're especially excited to see what they do to replace the cottage cheese wall on the south exterior.

They've taken out the whole front of the store--windows, walls, front door, everything. All that was left was a big gaping hole! It was totally surreal.

Yesterday a friend asked me how I was doing with the whole thing, and I told her that I've entered this weird phase, not quite believing The Read Leaf ever really existed. Sort of like Bob Newhart waking up next to Suzanne Pleshette and telling her that he had this weird dream about being married to someone else and owning an inn in Vermont.
