  1. So I've read 1-4, and so far it's great! I'm kicking myself for missing out on these when they originally hit the shelves. When I picked these up yesterday, I grabbed a 2nd printing of #1 (It's all they had)...I want to get my hands on a 1st print for my collection. :wishluck: I'll finish up 4-8 this weekend when I have more time.

  2. We had a great day trip today. April & I never get out together. Other than our 4-year anniversary about 3 weeks ago we haven't been out in months. I was headed out to Florence, SC (about 1.5 hours away) to get a very small collection of books that had some potential, so there was room in the car for them to tag along. Sadly the local comic shop wasn't open on Tuesdays and nor was the local flea market, but we can save those for another time. Met the guy at the local Goodwill and he mentioned he had 'a few other books' he found that might be 'worth something' and I asked to look at them. I got some more cash out immediately and bought those as well.

     

    We then went to the local 'regular' mall to walk around, then a really cool antique mall that had TONS of neat stuff to look at (drek/overpriced comics, though) and then finished it off at a wonderful place to eat called Redbone Alley. The whole interior of the restaurant is made to look like a street in downtown Charleston. Food was cheap and delicious. I had the shrimp & grits and it's one of the best things I've ever eaten. I'd drive the whole way just for a plate of that! Everly had a ball, but I'll be damned if that girl isn't in constant motion. It's tough to get a clear picture of her! :)

     

    Here's the stash I picked up :

    Here's the view from our table and a shot of my little dumpling.

    It was a wonderful day. For once I forgot about any stresses I might have. :)

     

    Peace,

    Redbone Alley does have pretty good food. I've got a friend that lives in Florence and we've been there a few times when I've visited. Nice find on those books. Your little dumpling is too cute! Congrats man
