After the 4th of July parade yesterday in Takoma Park (Washington, DC) I just had to stop at this restaurant/bookstore called Busboys and Poets. Everyone thought I would take forever, but I was only there for 5 mins-I think I made some good book buying decisions in that short time!

So many little free libraries too-I should have taken some pics! Oh well, I was living in the moment which is something I‘m trying more to do anyway. 🇺🇸🎆🎇

I watched this movie on our flight back to the US today. It was all I could do to keep from giving her a “hell yeah” out loud. And not just once or twice! Now I plan to inhale a couple of books about her that are on my shelf! #rbg #notoriousrbg

I adored this beyond words. Seeing her quotes is such a reminder of what a brilliant mind she has. I have so much appreciation of both her intelligence and of how well she is able to articulate complicated ideas. At the end of this collection is a timeline of her achievements and court cases she was involved in. The timeline would be incredibly useful if you wanted an overview of her accomplishments and why they matter.
