Worldcon was a lot of fun, but the dealer's room wasn't as big as we were hoping -- a lot of the US East Coast con dealers decided not to bother with Customs, and just stayed home.
Lis still managed to spend SOME money at the dealer's room, however.
But -- on the drive home, we stopped in Montpelier, Vermont, for lunch. On our way back to our car, I saw a bookstore, which had on display an interesting-looking book on making stone tools. So we went in.
I didn't get THAT book, but I got a different book which has sections on making stone tools, basket weaving, making hide glue, and so forth.
Then Lis saw a box that looks like three books, and contains decanters for booze and shot glasses. Then she saw an 1880 physicians' home health care book.
And it went on from there. $185 and one hour later, we left. . . .
