Books at Dallastown

After we checked into our York motel, we drove a few miles to the "Hearts and Minds Bookstore" in Dallastown. The bookstore is in a house where you can find books, books, and more books! It's a bookworm's delight! My dad picked up a couple of books, one on John Newton, the composer of the hymn, Amazing Grace, and a book about Anabaptists by J. Denny Weaver. I picked up four books. They are "The Voice of Luke, Not Even Sandals" by Brain McLaren, "Getting Students To Show Up" by Jonathan McKee, "Youth Culture 101" by Walt Mueller, and "Eat This Book" by Eugene Peterson. Pat and I chatted with the lady at the counter and told her we drove all the way from Bluffton to visit. She asked how we found out about the bookstore. I remarked that I receive the store owner's, Byron K. Borger's, email blog on book reviews. After our talk, I received a 10% discount and several recommendations on places to eat in the area. We then ate at "The Lion's Pride" for dinner. A good day as we now had food for the stomach and the soul.
These are the days my friend,
Jim "Train"
