The Mint got some wonderful donations over this stormy weekend. Come and check them out!!

Great things in The Mint. Reading will save us!

Our little wildflower bucket is bursting by The Mint. Come over, grab a book and don’t forget to stop and smell the flowers!🌺

Other great finds @loyaltybooks.bsky.social in Petworth. Did you know they have a pop-up shop in The Parks by Historic Walter Reed? Worth checking out!

By a strange coincidence we picked this up today at one of our favorite bookstores @loyaltybooks.bsky.social in Petworth. The Mint sends out it thoughts to the President and his family.

What goes great with books? A cup of nice hot beverage. We are perking up our coffee cup collection and moved these two to the giveaway pile. They can be yours along with a couple of teabags of our favorite licorice tea. Stop by and browse!

What book made you become a reader when you were a kid? This is one of ours. It was a few summers before the Bicentennial and this brilliant YA book set imaginations on fire. April 19, 1775 was the beginning of No Kings for America. #americanrevolution #books

There is a copy of Full Moon Pups in the Mint this morning! This is one of my favorite tails! Good morning Bluesky!

There is a special gift in the Mint today. Traveling cocktail mugs! Stop by and pick up a great book (thanks whoever came along and helped us restock!) and mixup some drinks for you and friend. TODAY is a great day for park reading.

Adding a couple of copies of one of my favorite memoirs about love and marriage. #books

Hegseths tattoos are about the Crusades. Guess who he wants to crusade against? From Military.com reporter, Steve Beynon: In one of his books, Pete Hegseth, Trump's pick for SecDef calls for a literal holy war against the left. This was written while he was a serving as an officer in the Guard."

If this MSNBC story about courts-martial is confirmed, I'm begging people - especially writers and reporters - do not fall for the Trump line that this is about Afghanistan. This is about Trump seeking revenge on the people who woudn't him do things like shoot American protesters.

Come see us!

New books in The Mint!

From the archives: Why aging boomers need walkable cities more than convenient parking Most people will live about seven to ten years beyond their ability to safely drive. How will they get around?

In Ontario, Canada, Premier Doug Ford plans to rip out major bike lanes to give the space back to cars. From my archives, a look at how important good bike and pedestrian infrastructure is to an aging population and older cyclists like me. lloydalter.substack.com/p/from-the-a...
