That's what this month is all about!<br /><br />Yes, Tecelote is still there. I've visited it myself a couple of months ago. Such a charming little place.<br /><br />And of course, now I want to go vacation on Whidby Island!<br /><br />Thanks Holly!R.L.

May I bring up...That sounds like my kind of store!<br /><br />May I bring up two indies that live large in my memory although I haven't been to the first in 40 years? <br />Tecolote Book Store in the Montecito Village. I worked there and at their [dear departed] store in El Paseo. Mickey was the tiny dynamo who was the buyer for adult books, Julia Cunningham [herself an excellent children's author] bought for the children's section. Tecolote, I read is still going.<br />In more recent history in Moonraker books on Whidbey Island (Langley WA) is a tiny jewelbox of bookstore run by Josh. It is everything that you would like to find when you are on vacation in a beautiful little town.<br />Thanks for the oportunity to talk about my favorites.hollygeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01152744535576051330noreply@blogger.com
