5 Minutes Of My Day - Time At The Thrift Store

August 8, 2018

We do enjoy walking around a thrift store and today we found some amazing things. 
 Thrift stores are a great way to relax during a lunch break and at times you get a peak into the past.  

The book that is opened is  "Poetical works of Robert Browning" - 1937 is written on the inside cover along with the previous owners name.   You can tell it was loved and well used - the spine has been repaired numerous times and page edges worn by use.

When you find beloved and beautiful things the following quote by Plutarch rings true.

"It is indeed a desirable thing to be well descended, but the glory belongs to our ancestors."
