When we travel anywhere we always look for the local bookstore. This week we’re spending four days on beautiful San Juan Island. Even though we have truly spectacular weather, we stopped in at Friday Harbor’s Griffin Bay Bookstore for a look around. (That was after an amazing breakfast at Rocky Bay Cafe – best corned beef hash and eggs anywhere!) We were very happy we stopped at the bookstore. It has an excellent selection of really interesting new books and good authors in many genres. Larry made a suggestion for their mystery shelves – Christopher Fowler’s Bryant and May mysteries, and it was well received and the idea written down. I bought the latest Kate Atkinson, One Good Turn. It will get me off my Kindle and out of the Maisie Dobbs saga for a while!

Visiting San Juan Island is always a good thing to do! Have breakfast at Rocky Bay Cafe and stop in at Griffin Bay Bookstore: http://www.griffinbaybook.com
