(The owl is actually red, but I couldn't figure out how to do that.)

As I pack books pre-move, sorting "keep" vs. "get rid of" (whether by sale or donation), this one is definitely a keeper, for its content as well as its venerability. This one gets wrapped in a bag before going in the carton.

Speaking of cartons, I have to go back to U-Haul for more book boxes. I've finished the fifty I bought the other week. I had to go to U-Haul because the Campus Shipping Store is consolidating their locations, and at least for now have no more boxes to sell. I used about fifty from them earlier-not all for books, it's true-maybe 20-30 for books.
