sad news for Alexandrians

I should have mentioned this yesterday when I first walked by the store, but Olsson's Books and Records, a chain store, has closed its well-known branch in Old Town Alexandria. The closing must have just happened: all the shelves were still stocked with books when I peeked through the locked front door.

I visited that bookstore often in my younger days with my longtime buddy Dr. Steve. It's sad to see it go, but all things end.
