B Daltons My Way

This is a tribute to my bookstore.
On January 16, 2010, this store will close for the very last time. It was a great place to work and it was a very successful store. Unfortunatly, it was caught in a mass closing of the entire division. A victim of a decision that can not be explained to any satisfaction. I will miss this store....This community.... The authors.....And the staff...past and present. We were good together!
It is a shame.... we are deserting our community and with all my heart, I wish I could stay.

Note: Featured in this slideshow are Daniel Roberts, Shirley Damsgaard, Gary Metivier, and Russell Arms. Just a few of the many local and regional authors I have had the honor to meet with. Thank you.
