Vintage Paperback Sale & Thanks
Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:31:39 GMT
The next day I'll be open to the public at DreamHaven will be Saturday, February 4 from noon - 7:00pm. I've been bringing up many boxes of old and vintage paperbacks and I'm finding quite a few interesting books. Some boxes have been sitting unopened for up to 20 years. I'll have hundreds to thousands of books at only $1 and other vintage books at great prices. I'll also be offering other items at various discounts as well.
I'd like to thank the many people who made the party last Saturday; we had over 500 people in the store throughout the day. Todd Menton deserves special thanks for playing some great music during the evening. I'd also like to thank Fiona and Steve for manning the register and allowing me to schmooze with as many people as possible. I apologize if I ... Read More »

What a great day!

This Is It!
Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:48:20 GMT
I'm declaring today to be "My Day". I'm so excited I'm fit to burst (but that would be messy and spoil the shirt and tie I wore today). This is the last regular hours day for me and DreamHaven and I'm busy preparing for THE PARTY.
It officially starts tonight at 7:00pm but I'll be putting things out all day. I hope some, many, all of you can make it to help me make this transition. It's scary, exhilarating, happy and sad, and a whole lot of other adjectives. It's been quite a rollercoaster ride the last 35 years and it's not over yet. It's just a more tame sort of coaster.
Please do come by for a book, a chat, a cookie and make me even happier today.
Be Very Happy.
Greg
